FAI Rent-a-Jet has announced a fifth Challenger 604 to its fleet of air ambulances, which are used for medevac missions worldwide, and often hired for private use in the Middle East.

The new addition will increase the fleet to nine aircraft, and will be modified for air ambulance missions ready to join the fleet in December.
 
“We took the decision to add a fifth Challenger to our air ambulance fleet as the model fulfils the unique requirements of long range patient transport. With its spacious cabin, capacity for multiple missions and long range capability, it is a valuable addition to the mix and supports our growing air ambulance activity,” said Siegfried Axtmann, FAI´s founder and chairman.
 
FAI is one of the world’s leading air ambulance suppliers, and averages two intercontinental medical evacuations per day.
