Rex subsidiary Pel-Air has been awarded a tender by the ADF for the Commonwealth Air Transport Deed of Standing Offer.
Pel-Air joins a number of other companies including Adagold and Strategic Aviation as an authorised ADF air transport provider for personnel and equipment for three years from November 2, with an option to extend for a further two years.
“The award by the ADF is recognition that Pel-Air is part of an elite group of air charter brokers in Australia that can be trusted to plan and organise complex military air movements of troops and equipment to wherever they are needed,” Pel-Air director Jim Davis said. “We will be using the specialist division in Pel-Air called RexJet Executive Charter that has years of experience in all sorts of air charter including medical evacuations, mining fly-in/fly-out operations, executive charters and troop movements.”
