Air mobility group Ascent is launching AirborneX as an online platform where helicopter owners can offer their aircraft to other operators under dry leases (without flight crew). According to the Singapore-based group, the service provides a way to increase aircraft utilization and revenues in the face of market disruption caused by the Covid crisis.
