They also successfully completed the shipment of an MD 600 N helicopter, showcasing its expertise in handling complex logistics. The helicopter, equipped with a Rolls-Royce 250-C47M turbine engine, has a capacity to carry up to 8 people and a maximum speed of 278 km/h, with a range of approximately 560 km. The shipment, including the disassembled helicopter parts such as the main rotor blades and landing gear skid tubes, was carefully packed into a 40-foot High Cube container. The helicopter was transported from Phoenix, Arizona, to the L.A. California port, with its final destination being San Antonio, Chile.
