Bond Helicopters coming to Norwich
 

Rumour has it that Bond Helicopters have ordered 3 365N3 for a contract out of Norwich Airport and have at least 1 based offshore?:hmm:

Heard similar just last week. Any takers?

Part of the Lowestoft windfarm contract maybe??

Bond
 

Why, you looking for a job?

so someone else heard similar then. Can't see it doing much flying really for a windfarm?

On what r they going stay or land on if for lowestoft windfarm and are there any offshore contracts coming up 4 tender which Bond are chasing?

I think it will be between the red and the yellow birds:rolleyes:

excuse my ignorance but are the yellow birds NHV from Belgium

You mean OO-NHV and OO-NHX? Yeah, I'd reckon!!

Thanks Whirls

Thought BAS would've built a heliport in Lowestoft :) or maybe acquired some 429 in the near future for this :)

But BAS don't operate 365s at all unless as you guys said could be NHV :)

Mmmmmmm lovely new N3s nice. :ok:

I think you will find that Bond have gained from CHC part of the work for Perenco with an N3 based in the Leman field, but it doesnt start until March 2010.

CHC retain the rest of the Perenco contract.

CHC retain the rest of the Perenco contract
 

For now !!

Nice rumour! OO-NHV hasn't even been anywhere near Norwich!

Well, one of them might be OO-NHY; my eyesight isn't what it used to be! :8

NHV were doing a short (summer) contract for Perenco manning up a satellite platform that's why they were seen at Norwich. The Perenco offshore based contract is coming up and I think both Bond and NHV are bidding for it. Does anyone know for sure if Bond's have got it?

i've heard bond has a contract with Perenco starting Q4 2009

NHV have another machine coming to Norwich mid jan for an offshore role

Bond in Norwich
 

Bond will have 365N3 in Norwich for Perenco work.

A new hangar is being built in Lowestoft for the wind farm work which will be accomplished by 2 X EC135s which will be Winch equipped.

Both contracts start in 2010

Didnt know Lowestoft had a heliport? Where will be the new hangar built?
