The afternoon will include commercial updates by Sikorsky, GE, IMP Aerospace and ACROHelipro.

And finally, new to this year’s symposium will be an exhibit area, presenting an excellent opportunity for vendors to showcase their products and services first-hand to the international Sea King community.
