  • Lci Agrees Two Multi-Year Debt Facilities to Underpin Australian Growth ______
    LCI AGREES TWO MULTI-YEAR DEBT FACILITIES TO UNDERPIN AUSTRALIAN GROWTH __________________________________________ 6 October, 2015 – LCI, the aviation leasing arm of the Libra Group, has finalised two long-term debt facilities to support over US$200m of incremental fleet growth in Australia. Westpac Banking Corporation will act as sole lender, security trustee and agent to support LCI’s recent multi-year agreement to lease four new AgustaWestland AW139 helicopters to Australia’s Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service. The helicopters will be delivered in the second half of 2016 and, following fit-out for emergency medical service (EMS) operations, will be deployed in Northern New South Wales on contract to NSW Ambulance, on behalf of NSW Health within the Government of New South Wales. The high-specification aircraft, including full medical and rescue equipment and winch, have been financed under a tripartite, 10-year arrangement with Westpac Banking Corporation, an existing financier of LCI and long-term naming rights sponsor of the helicopter operator. LCI also recently concluded an agreement to lease six new AgustaWestland AW139 aircraft to Australian Helicopters Pty Ltd, a member of the Babcock Mission Critical Services Group. The aircraft will be progressively delivered to Australian Helicopters through 2015 and 2016 and, following arrival in Australia, will be modified for EMS operations. Once deployed, they will be operated on behalf of Air Ambulance Victoria and in due course replace their older aircraft. The aircraft will be financed through an innovative, 10-year facility that LCI has concluded with Westpac Banking Corporation, acting as security trustee, agent, lender and hedge counterparty and National Australia Bank, acting as lender and hedge counterparty.

He states that there are 28 police helicopter squads in 18 provincial-level regions on the Chinese mainland, and they have a total of 47 helicopters. "The size of existing police helicopter fleets is usually small and their operational capability is weak, leading to less than 10% of mainland cities being covered by police aviation, mean- while, the police in many border regions still have no helicopter squads," The helicopters used by these squads are AC311s and AC312s made by the Aviation In- dustry Corp of China, and some other types bought from foreign companies. The first police aviation team on the mainland appeared in 1994, when the Public Security Bureau in Wuhan, Hubei province, founded a helicopter squad.
