De Havilland Canada (DHC) and Servicio Aéreo a Territorios Nacionales (Satena) have signed an agreement for the purchase of eight DHC-6 Twin Otter aircraft. This acquisition aims to enhance Colombia's air connectivity by improving access to remote areas.
Majority-owned by the Colombian government, Satena focuses on providing access to less connected regions. DHC highlighted that the Twin Otter offers favorable operating economics, supporting Satena's growth strategy for the next 50 years. Deliveries are scheduled to begin later this year.
"The De Havilland Canada Twin Otter, with its modern cockpit, rugged airframe, and proven reliability, is the right addition to our fleet and will support our mission to [exceed] expectations, expand our routes, and reach new destinations," said Maj. Gen. Oscar Zuluaga Castano, president of Satena.
