Why Twin-Engine? Safety & Compliance in Istanbul
In accordance with SHGM (Turkish Directorate General of Civil Aviation) regulations, safety is non-negotiable for inner-city operations. High-rise helipads in Istanbul, such as those at the Raffles Istanbul, strictly require twin-engine helicopters for landing and takeoff.
Our AgustaWestland AW139 is the industry leader in this category, providing the necessary performance and redundancy required to access premium locations directly. This ensures that your journey remains safe, compliant, and uninterrupted, avoiding the need for secondary transfers from ground-level airfields.
