Reuben Brothers have acquired the London
Heliport in Battersea from Andrew Davis.
The acquisition, made by Reuben Brothers
investment vehicle Aldersgate Investments Limited, extends the
group's existing aviation interests, including the ownership of
London Oxford Airport which was acquired in 2007. Following
substantial investment, London Oxford Airport was voted the 'Best
British Business Aviation Airport' in 2009.
One of
the Heliport's most significant customers is the PremiAir Aviation
group of companies, which are also held by Mr Davis. PremiAir and
the London Heliport will continue to work together on a number of
initiatives.
The London Heliport, located on the
River Thames and with easy access to London's West End and the
city, represents a unique opportunity to acquire the only CAA
licensed heliport in London.
The London Heliport has been in
continuous operation since 1959, providing essential service to
the business community and emergency services, such as the Air
Ambulance (HEMS) and Police Air Support units.
The heliport has an
established client base and a newly developed terminal and VIP
lounge offering luxurious facilities to passengers. It also
benefits from an exemption to the no-fly zone during the Olympics,
meaning a large number of dignitaries and other VIPs will be able
to use the London Heliport as an easy access route to the 2012
Games.
London Oxford Airport to London Heliport
can now be flown in just over 20 minutes. London Heliport
Operating hours are 07:00 to 23:00 seven days a week. London Oxford
Airport's hours are 06:30 to 22:30 seven days a week, but can
extend hours from 06:00 to midnight any day with the relevant
permissions.
