PERFECT EXPERIENCE
Program Process
We are well-positioned to support customers seeking the ultimate utility helicopter. EAS is the only private owner and operator of currently four pieces of UH-60 Black Hawks in Europe. Our experiences are allowing us to propose pre-owned UH-60A’s (“Alpha”) previously operated by the US military. These aircraft are in possession of EAS and are offered at a fraction of the price of new aircraft.
As our organization is EASA/FAA certified as a PART 145 repair station, we are well qualified for restoring the mission capabilities of these UH-60A helicopters according customer’s needs.
Some of the missions requires special equipment and configuration of helicopters. Therefore, EAS is able to provide modernization of avionics, airframe and engine up to UH-60 L+ variant.
The Helicopter is subject to US export control laws and regulations, including the Export Administration Regulations and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations. EAS longstanding experiences can provide the consultancy in certification process, making the process smooth and more efficient.
Our engineers and logistic staff is well experienced and qualified to deliver the aircraft without any hustle from the side of customer.

We are currently possessing with 2x fully functional UH60 Black Hawk maintenance trainer (trailer birds) in order to practice airframe, avionics, engine systems and computer based interactive multimedia training.
