HELICOPTER operator Helicentre is having Launch Weekend at its new base at Leicester Airport on 19-20 June.

The company moved recently from Coventry Airport to Leicester and has just finished the first phase of the change.

Helicentre boss Chris Line, pictured right, said, "Phase one of the relocation was the completion of our new building providing our central operations, business lounge, boardroom and various briefing rooms and training facilities.

"Phase two will commence in August, which will see the erection of hangar and workshop facilities and provide Helicentre with a platform to provide Helicopter maintenance for its own fleet as well as third party aircraft. The benefits to our customers are numerous and this move completes the circle of capabilities and services that Helicentre Aviation can provide. It also provides central management and control for our new bases at Bournemouth and Blackpool.

"Leicester as an operating base provides many advantages not least the social and club facilities with a popular café and fully licensed bar. We are working in conjunction with the Aero Club to promote these facilities and expand our own social side as well as corporate events and team building."

"With the big day approaching for the launch of our new centre of excellence at Leicester Airport, we would like to invite you to join us for a weekend of helicopter fun, food, a live band and a fly-in for anyone who wants to attend by air! For further information contact us on 08006 123 211."
