MONTE Completes Long-Term Lease of DHC-6-400 Aircraft to Hevilift Aviation for Operations in Papua New Guinea

MONTE is pleased to announce that it has completed the long-term lease of one DHC-6-400 aircraft alongside its partner, Lagavulin Asset Management Ltd, to Hevilift Aviation. The aircraft forms part of MONTE’s special missions portfolio, supporting mission-critical operations in remote and demanding environments.

Hevilift Aviation is a well-established operator in Papua New Guinea with extensive experience supporting operations in remote and challenging environments.

The aircraft will be deployed across Papua New Guinea to support logistics and transportation requirements associated with large-scale infrastructure and natural resource developments, where aviation plays a critical role in enabling access to remote locations and supporting project execution.

This transaction highlights the continued demand for robust, short take-off and landing aircraft such as the DHC-6-400, which are well suited to operating in difficult terrains and under demanding operating conditions, particularly within special mission and mission-critical applications.

As a specialist in regional and mission-critical aviation, MONTE continues to support operators globally through tailored leasing and capital solutions, enabling essential air connectivity and supporting critical infrastructure and industrial activity.
