Press Release
The Burman Aviation Group, "one of the leading helicopter businesses in the UK" with bases at Cranfield and other locations around the country, has been sold.
After six years in the ownership of the Catto family the business has been bought by Thomas Ivings, who is to become chief executive.
The new owner is a chartered certified accountant with a practice near Oxford. He has been involved with Burman for the past four years.
The company now has big expansion plans, including a rapid expansion of its Twin Squirrel maintenance and operations (in addition to its existing Robinson and JetRanger business).
The expansion plan includes opening further schools and engineering line bases at strategic locations around the country, and increasing the range of aircraft operated.
