01 / Model history

## The Universal Middle Class

The variety of roles makes the name AW139 familiar far beyond private aviation. But that is why the photo of one side and the salon of the other say little about the possibilities of the third.

In the corporate configuration, space and privacy come to the fore; in the work configuration, access to equipment and the organization of shifts. Before comparing, ask for the exact execution, operation history and composition of the cabin.

## Specifications and uses

The AW139 combines passenger capacity and numerous professional roles. In corporate transportation, the version of the cabin that is really installed on board is especially important.

### Why AW139 is used differently

The average cabin size makes the AW139 convenient for transporting people, medical tasks and sea flights. Different operators order different doors, seats, fuel and special equipment.

When choosing a private route, specify the past of the car. Service board after conversion should be evaluated on the documentation for the interior, new mass and cabin condition.

### High range - under what conditions

The number 1,187 km in the Leonardo catalog is given with additional fuel and no reserve. It does not mean such a flight with fifteen passengers and luggage.

For a frequent route, it is better to request a calculation with real people, reserve and wind. It will show whether an intermediate landing or a smaller load is needed.
