Construction of new Boeing MQ-28 drone factory begins
Construction of a new production facility in Queensland, Australia to support the manufacture of the MQ-28 Ghost Bat has started, Boeing has announced.
This year's visitor numbers matched the high levels of attendance from the previous event in 2009 with almost 4,000 visitors; total attendance reached more than 5,000. Helitech exhibition manager, Brandon Ward, said: “The majority of our exhibitors value Helitech as a way of cementing existing customer relationships but this year many have also been impressed with the wide range of visitors attending – offering them both access to new customers but also inroads into different segments of the rotary wing market.” The next Helitech takes place from 24-26 September 2013 at the Imperial War Museum, Duxford. www.helitechevents.com
