I suspect there were a lot of disappointed people in the RAI Amsterdam. The lack of comment here since the 12 tends to underline its lack of "vavoom". The show was fine and there were lots of positive comments on the business done. It failed to deliver on airframes shown but that was a detail.
It was it seems the last Helitech [ever].
There were press notices put out that highlighted the fact but few noticed the full page message on page 17 of the catalogue.
There is a split between EHA and the organisers. The organisers [currently the Helitech International team from Reed] are going off on their own to do a thing called Vertical Flight in November 2019 at Farnborough and EHA are doing their own thing [no name] in Europe [but 95% NOT at the RAI] in 2020.
A great shame but I suspect there may be ownership issues over the good name of Helitech - why else would they ditch an icon? The new name is supposed to encompass drones but there were precious few [1] at the RAI so that is not an issue.
If you want to read a very good write up on this issue and the past history of Wellitech etc I suggest you check out Helihub.
