Munich, Germany-based operator MHS Aviation is here at EBACE 2012 (Stand 749) promoting its renewed portfolio of aircraft, including its recent acquisition of two pre-owned Dornier 328-100 turboprops, each seating 32 passengers. “For the last 12 months, we have seen an increase in the demand for group travel of up to 30 passengers,” said Frank Steitz, director of charter sales.

The two 328s are available for charter and wet lease. All the pilots, flight attendants and ground staff, including the director of flight operations and the director of training, have been sourced from IOSA-certified operators, said Steitz.

MHS Aviation operates 11 aircraft in total. The other fixed-wing aircraft are five Learjets–two of them in air-ambulance configuration. The helicopter fleet is composed of two AgustaWestland A109 light twins, a Eurocopter AS350 BE light single and one Bell 206L LongRanger.
