Frequently Asked Questions — Agusta AW169

What makes the Leonardo AW169 different from the AW109 family?

The AW169 is a 4.6-ton twin-engine helicopter — significantly larger than the AW109 Trekker (3.0 ton). It seats 10 passengers in a flat-floor cabin and offers category-leading performance. The AW169 is designed for EMS, offshore, law enforcement, and corporate transport. Used prices start around $8M. PW210A engines with FADEC provide excellent power-to-weight ratio.

Is the AW169 suitable for EMS operations?

The AW169 is increasingly popular for HEMS (helicopter emergency medical services) due to its large cabin, flat floor for stretcher loading, and single-pilot IFR capability. The retractable gear provides a wider loading area than skid-equipped alternatives. Operating costs are higher than light twins but lower than the AW139. Several European air ambulance services have adopted the AW169.
