European Rotors, jointly organized by the European Helicopter Association (EHA) and EASA, saw attendee numbers grow to more than 5,400 people, 231 exhibitors, and 23 aircraft on display. The event was produced by Helicopter Association International; it was held in Madrid and hosted by the Asociación de Trabajos Aéreos y de Emergencias (ATAIRE), the Spanish Helicopter Association.
The four-day event included a Spanish Day, highlighting the country’s contributions to the rotorcraft industry.
“Our friends at ATAIRE were instrumental in the success of this year’s show,” said EHA executive director Isabella Abbate. “They were truly excited to introduce their country and industry to the rest of the helicopter industry, and we are sincerely grateful for their work to make this show so successful.
"One of the reasons we chose to bring the show to Spain is because of the strength of the rotorcraft industry there,” she said. “Our assessment proved to be correct, as their contributions included a significant presence on the show floor, during Spanish Day, and throughout the show as a whole.”
ATAIRE president Eduardo Consejo added, “One of the goals of the show is to facilitate business between companies and buyers, and the data shows that the Madrid show met that challenge.”
Next year’s European Rotors is scheduled for Nov. 4 to 7, 2024, in Amsterdam.
