European Rotors to expand from three days to four

European Rotors is preparing for its biggest show to date, expanding from three days to four, as well as a move to a new location.

The first two editions took place in Cologne, Germany, over three days, but this year’s is in Madrid, Spain, from 27-30 November.

European Rotors is organised by the European Helicopter Association (EHA) and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). The 2023 event is hosted by the Spanish Helicopter Association (ATAIRE) and produced by Helicopter Association International (HAI).

The extra day of the show, on 27 November, will focus on safety by organising the EASA Rotorcraft and VTOL Symposium as a stand-alone event. It remains the flagship of the European Rotors conference programme, presenting the latest rotorcraft and vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) developments.

David Solar, Head of the General Aviation and VTOL Department for EASA, said: “EASA’s primary focus is safe flight throughout the European Union.

“This event allows us to work directly with the manufacturers, suppliers, operators and individuals in this industry. We use this show to collaborate with everyone on developing the latest and smartest safety programmes.”
