Dubai HeliShow 2018 will also host strategic networking opportunities for participating companies, which include meetings and interactions between the international helicopter industry, as well as the defence and security sectors and prospective buyers.”

Ahmad Abulhoul Managing Director, Domus Group, organizers of Dubai HeliShow 2018, said: “In addition to highlighting recent advancements in helicopter technology, this year’s edition of Dubai HeliShow is set to explore the segment’s regional growth potential by bringing industry leaders, pioneers and other industry stakeholders under one umbrella to discuss strategies and roadmaps to effectively improve defence and homeland security capabilities. The show will be marked with three exciting days of exhibitions, product demonstrations and networking opportunities—all designed to increase awareness on the major trends and developments that will impact the market’s future at both regional and global levels.”

Jalaal Abu Hassan, Regional Sales Manager, Instruments – ME, FLIR Systems said: “In the defence sector, thermal imaging is mostly associated with ‘seeing the enemy.’ The technology is now widely used by government test labs; military test range applications; and aerospace and astronomy applications to include tracking, target signature, laser designation and scoring, munitions testing, adaptive optics, technical surveillance and countermeasures. With the information provided by thermal imaging, researchers can characterize objects in the thermal spectrum to identify and improve their designs.”

“Visit us at the Dubai Helishow 2018 to learn more about thermal imaging and its wide variety of applications,” he added.

For his part Steve Ghaleb, Vice President of Commercial Operations at DART Aerospace said: “Attending this show as a networking exhibitor and sponsor is another great stepping-stone towards having a stronger presence in the region. Especially with the high demand for our AW139 Emergency Flotation System with Integrated Liferaft, we are glad to be offering aerospace mission-critical equipment of the highest value to aircraft OEM and operators within the UAE. Not only is it essential for DART Aerospace to support the industry, it is also part of our vision to help define the future of cost-effective equipment in this evolving aerospace industry.”
