Rotortrade announced the sale and delivery of a Leonardo AW119Ke (YOM 2010, S/N 14762) to Aeromaster supporting air operations for VIP and authorities’ transportation, Oil industries and Medevac missions in Ecuador. The aircraft was previously operated by the South African Red Cross Air Mercy Service (AMS) as an EMS platform. Following its arrival in Quito in late October, it was delivered to its new Ecuador-based operator, Aeromaster Airways and is now being integrated into local operations. Working in close coordination with Aeromaster and AMS, Rotortrade managed the technical inspection process, aircraft preparation, administrative procedures, and cross-continental transport to ensure a smooth transition from Africa to Latin America. Raymond Lubrano, EVP Head of Region LATAM at Rotortrade, said: “This transaction highlights the strength of our regional coordination and our commitment to delivering operational aircraft where they are needed most. Latin America continues to show strong demand for EMS platforms, and our ability to move aircraft efficiently across continents reflects the depth of our network and the professionalism of our teams. Strengthening our relationship with Aeromaster through projects like this supports our long-term development strategy in the region.” Roberto Damone, Attorney in Fact of Aeromaster SA LLC added: “This transaction reflects the structured and transparent way Rotortrade manages complex cross-border projects. From technical oversight to logistics and administrative coordination, the process was handled with efficiency and clarity at every stage. Rotortrade’s combination of global reach and strong local expertise in Latin America makes them a reliable and solid partner for operators. We value their service-driven approach and look forward to continuing our collaboration on future opportunities.” For Editorial Inquiries Contact: Editor Matt Driskill at [email protected] For Advertising Inquiries Contact: Head of Sales Sally Passey at [email protected]
