The Helicopter and Jet Company (THC), Saudi Arabia’s recently established helicopter venture, expects to reach a fleet size of at least 46 helicopters this year and potentially establish a fleet of fixed-wing aircraft for service entry as early as the fourth quarter of 2023 to support future programs and its aspirations to become one of the top-ten helicopter players in the world.

“The anticipated delivery pipeline in 2023 will see fleet size rise to 46-plus helicopters, plus potential fixed-wing deliveries, still to be announced,” A.J. Baker, THC’s chief commercial officer, told AIN. “In 2024, fleet size should rise to 58-plus helicopters, as well as the future fixed-wing fleet.”
