The International Assistance Group announces further enhancements to its African network as Phoenix Aviation is selected to join

Paris, France, October 30, 2024 – Our capabilities and capacity in East Africa have increased with the addition of Phoenix Aviation to the network. In addition to our ISO 9001 compliant vetting process, they are a EURAMI Accredited Provider, demonstrating their commitment to maintaining high standards.

From their base in Kenya, their mixed fleet of aircraft tackles local and continental missions, extending into the EU through their European Aviation Safety Agency permit. Supported by a team of certified engineers, Phoenix Aviation also provides regulated maintenance and executive charters, showing the depth of their operation.

‘We are delighted to welcome Phoenix Aviation to our group,’ stated Louise Heywood, the IAG’s General Manager. She added:’ With tourism and inward investment returning to the region, we have been working hard to ensure our network has the skills and capacity to meet that demand.’

Kenya and neighboring countries are all within reach of their two King Air turboprops as well as their Grand Caravan piston aircraft, which can be used for short airstrip landings. Their  5 Cessna Citations jets of different models are  Sovereign C680, Citation Excel C560 or Citation Bravo C550 available for missions further afield.

Under the supervision of Phoenix Aviation’s Chief Medical Officer, medical crew are selected for their experience and training in emergency and critical care environments. All new medical personnel undertake the foundational course in critical considerations in aeromedical training (CCAT).
