MDHI delivers first Europe-based law-enforcement configured MD Explorer since takeover

MDHI has delivered to the UK's Greater Manchester police its first Europe-based law enforcement-configured MD Explorer since its takeover by investment company Patriarch Partners in July 2005.

The aircraft will enter service in the second half of the year replacing the force's existing Explorer - acquired in 2001 and flown over 7000h - in service.

"The return of European law enforcement to MD Helicopters is an important milestone for our company," says MDHI chief executive Lynn Tilton. "We will follow this landmark delivery with many more Explorer deliveries to European law enforcement and emergency medical services providers during 2008."
