The event was a prime opportunity to join the AgustaWestland team for a flight in the AW119 Kx and to experience the capabilities of the aircraft that will allow it to be viable option in the selection for the Navy’s next- generation advanced helicopter trainer. The U.S. Navy training community as a whole was further introduced to the AW119Kx at the Blue Angels Homecoming Air Show, where thousands of attendees got a glimpse of the aircraft on display during the three-day event in Pensacola.
