Army Aviation Regiment Commander Col. Andre Santos led the All-Army aviators in a long-range proficiency training flight using the Robinson R44 Clipper II and the Bolkow BO 105M multi-purpose helicopters in a round-trip flight mission. The said training is part of the continuous skills enhancement of rotary-wing aviators as the Phillippine Army is committed to enhancing and developing a transformed and modern Army aviation to capacitate all Army aviators in its future mission supporting the ground forces.

“As you push yourselves in giving your best on your training, I commend all men and women manning the Army Aviation Regiment. Despite the challenging time and situation, you commit to capacitating yourselves for the development and transformation of our modernized Army aviation. You have all the support of the Philippine Army leadership as you evolve into a modern and capable Army Aviation Regiment that is a source of national pride,” Lt. Gen. Brawner said.
