FAI Air Ambulance reports record 2016

FAI rent-a-jet’s air ambulance division had a record year in 2016, both in revenues and flight hours.

The German operator passed revenues of €45m for the first time in its history, which is a 7% rise over 2015s figure.

FAI also generated more than 100,000 flight hours across its 11 strong fleet of aircraft.

“Despite the negative effect the oil and gas crisis in the Middle East has had on the growth of FAI´s Air Ambulance Business, we achieved a very successful 2016,” said Siegfried Axtmann, chairman, FAI.

So far in 2017 the company has added a LearJet 60 and a Challenger 604 to the air ambulance fleet.
