DEBORAH NICHOLLS
Aircraft for Africa (AFA) was established in 2012 by Deborah. AFA focuses on business development, marketing and the sale of pre-owned fixed wing aircraft and rotorwing aircraft. Deborah’s aviation experience spans over several decades having being part of the marketing team who were the first distributors for Robinson Helicopters, Bell helicopters, Lockheed & Smiths Industries simulators in Southern Africa. These brands have all grown exponentially throughout Southern Africa, thus creating many career opportunities for engineering staff, pilots and corporates alike.
Deborah’s expertise are business development, sales and marketing – having being involved in business development for piston helicopters (Robinson) and turbine helicopters (Bell). Deborah has dealt with high net worth individuals and has built very good relationships over the years. She has sold many turbine helicopters from Princes in Abu Dhabi to mining magnates in Brazil etc. Deborah exported the majority of the EC 120 helicopters from South Africa to overseas countries.
Deborah is a strategist and insightful in business. Deborah saw the opportunity to become involved in developing the airline market, and secured the mandate from Egypt Air to sell their 2 x Airbus A320-200 airliners – which she successfully achieved. This has been the highlight of her aviation career.
