EASA Certifies Leonardo AW109 Trekker

Jan 25, 2018 Jessica A. Salerno, William Garvey and Molly McMillin | Business & Commercial Aviation

Leonardo has received European Aviation Safety Agency certification for its AW109 Trekker twin-engine light helicopter, which is essentially a derivative of the AW109 GrandNew but fitted with skid-landing gear rather than retractable wheeled landing gear. First deliveries are expected this quarter. The 7,000-lb. aircraft flew for the first time in March 2016.
