To transport S-70i Black Hawk helicopter cockpit to be assembled at its Poland facility
CEVA Logistics was recently selected by Sikorsky Aircraft, a subsidiary of United Technologies (UTX), to provide transport services for its helicopter parts.
Sikorsky selected CEVA to transport the first S-70i Black Hawk helicopter cockpit to be assembled at their facility in Poland, PZL Mielec. The shipment originated in Stratford, CT, US and measured 390x245x105cm.
The company said that their operational experts based in New York, Paris and Warsaw worked together to move the sensitive load through New York and Paris airports. As part of the service, CEVA ensured verification of the offloading process and the subsequent loading of the European road vehicle, as well as assisting with the necessary T1 bond customs clearance to move the cockpit to Poland.
Adam Chazanow, managing director of CEVA in Poland, said: "CEVA is delighted to have been entrusted with Sikorsky’s shipments. The aerospace industry is a key sector for CEVA as we seek to dynamically expand in Poland. We look forward to expanding our first-class service to further clients and would like to thank Sikorsky for their vote of confidence in us."
