Wiking Helikopter H145 Approved Training Organisation
Wiking, December 12, 2017 - Sande – Wiking’s own in-house ATO (Approved Training Organisation) has successfully completed the first type rating for the new fleet model, the Airbus H145.

Having its own ATO, Wiking Helikopter Service GmbH is now in a position to carry out training not only for the helicopter type S76, but also for the H145.

Presently Wiking has two Airbus H145 aircraft at its disposal for offshore operations.

The in-house ATO makes it possible for the company to train its own pilots according to requirements and tailor the growth of the fleet with the qualification of the pilots. The ATO is also available to 3rd parties for their type rating and training needs. With the additional aircraft, Wiking is taking a further step towards its goal of fleet modernisation.

About WIKING Helikopter Service GmbH: WIKING Helikopter Service GmbH has been working for more than 42 years as specialist for offshore operations in the North and Baltic Sea, operating 6 helicopters of the types Sikorsky S76, Leonard Helicopters 139, and Airbus H145.
