CivilDescription: The AW109 Power is a versatile aircraft that offers the highest level of benefits for
commercial, government and military markets, combining optimum performance with cost-effectiveness. The Power’s flexibility allows it to perform executive transport with
stylish elegance, offshore and emergency medical services or conduct surveillance and patrol missions for police forces. In addition, the AW109 Power serves a variety of missions for military forces. The Power is valued by operators and pilots alike for its
outstanding performance, reliability and ease of maintenance combined with mission flexibility, high speed and productivity. It is single pilot IFR certified and can perform Category “A” take-offs from elevated helipads without any payload reduction, while
complying with the European regulations relating to Class 1 performance helicopters. The AW109 Power can be equipped with either Pratt & Whitney or Turbomeca engines
controlled by a Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) system. Pilot workload is reduced by way of a digital glass cockpit with six liquid crystal instrument displays.Applications:
Name: VIP/CORPORATE
Description: The AW109 Power features a large passenger cabin with a number of refinements to interior accommodation that generate an outstanding level of elegance. The elegant
interior has been exclusively designed to meet the highest standards of comfort with
internal noise further reduced, courtesy of new soundproofing. The aircraft is also fitted
with an advanced avionics suite. Two larger rear windows give improved visibility. Cockpit instrumentation has been upgraded to a seven liquid crystal display
configuration. Externally, the Elite’s profile now features an electrically operated main cabin access, a satellite communications antenna at the base of the vertical fin and landing/taxi lights built into the landing gear sponsons.
Name: EMS/SAR
Description: The AW109 Power EMS combines the finest patient care environment with an airframe exceeding today’s demands. Its spacious patient/medical staff cabin is completely
separate from the cockpit, allowing 2 or 3 attendants full access to the two longitudinally placed litters without disruption to the cockpit. The internal layout
includes provision for the installation of all necessary medical equipment to treat patients whilst in transit. Two standard rails are positioned both in the cabin rear bulkhead and on upper side panels which include outlets for oxygen, emergency air
and power. Description:
The Power can be equipped with the new Model 325 Fire Attack System, designed by Simplex, or with a more traditional bumbi bucket. The Model 325 features aerodynamic design characteristics that enable the AW109 Power to be flown at high speeds for fire
fighting missions. The system is designed for installation and removal in less than fifteen minutes, without the use of tools.
Name: HARBOUR PILOT SHUTTLE Description:
The AW109 Power HPS sets new standards in terms of safety, mission capability and versatility. In the standard marine pilot transfer configuration, the Power is equipped with three rear seats and one central swivelling seat used by the hoist operator. The
AW109 Power HPS offers today's harbour pilot authorities a modern, safe, and efficient way to increase a port's productivity while decreasing port congestion.
Name: LAW ENFORCEMENT Description:
Offering outstanding multi-role flexibility for law enforcement missions, the AW109 Power's key features include high speed, excellent performance, high aircraft
availability, cost-effective in both acquisition and direct operating costs and low environmental impact. A wide range of law enforcement mission equipment and systems make the Power a true multi-role helicopter able to satisfy a wide range of
missions. Name:
NAVAL APPLICATIONS Description: The AW109 Power is the best solution for an embarked light twin helicopter, due to its
multi-mission effectiveness, the extensive corrosion protection and high sea state operation capability. The Power can perform its mission when many other helicopters
would be confined to the ships’ hangar. Name: OFFSHORE
The AW109 Power is well suited for the demanding offshore mission. It is the fastest helicopter in its class and is single pilot IFR certified. Take-off in Category “A” from
elevated helipads is made possible without any payload reduction. For the offshore transport mission, specific equipment can be installed such as pop-out floats. Name:
TRAINING Description:
The AW109, together with AgustaWestland’s established and professional training services, provides the total training solution for today’s frontline pilots. The AW109 twin engine, single/dual IFR certified helicopter provides a modern, safe and versatile
training platform. It has the high speed performance, airframe configuration and avionics fit that emulate the majority of frontline helicopters.
