en.Wedoany.com Reported - TAM Aviação Executiva closed a total of 12 aircraft deals during the 21st LABACE, setting a sales record for the company at the São Paulo event. Over the three-day show, eight helicopters, three turboprops, and one piston single-engine aircraft were sold, with the volume underscoring the warming trend in the Brazilian business aviation market and ranking among the company's key highlights at the exhibition.

Helicopters accounted for the largest share of this sales volume, with eight units sold, equivalent to two-thirds of TAM AE's total aircraft sales during the event. This distribution reflects the diversity of the portfolio represented by TAM Aviação Executiva—the company represents brands such as Textron Aviation and Bell in the Brazilian market, offering aircraft suited to different operational and mission requirements.
By model, the Bell 505 Jet Ranger X stood out in particular, gaining greater traction among Brazilian operators and driving the company's sustained growth in helicopter sales in recent years, while also confirming the positive momentum in Brazil's rotorcraft segment. In addition to helicopters, TAM AE sold three turboprops and one piston single-engine aircraft, indicating that demand is spread across different aircraft categories.
Leonardo Fiuza, President of TAM Aviação Executiva, stated that LABACE has always been the primary business platform for business aviation in Latin America, and this edition once again exceeded expectations. He said the record sales were driven by customer trust, the strength of the Brazilian market, and TAM Aviação Executiva's ability to deliver comprehensive solutions.
The 21st LABACE once again served as a key meeting point for manufacturers, representatives, operators, and business aviation clients. For TAM Aviação Executiva, the show also highlighted its integrated operating model, covering aircraft sales, maintenance, training, airport services, charter, hangarage, aircraft management, and operations management. The company stated that the business volume achieved during the event demonstrates strong market demand for aircraft that combine operational efficiency, technical sophistication, and versatility. The commercial results of this edition further reinforce the company's strategy of offering a "one-stop shop" service, providing multiple solutions across the full aircraft lifecycle.
With 65 years of history, TAM Aviação Executiva continues to invest in service and maintenance infrastructure. The company recently expanded the coverage of its Mobile Service Center and plans a new round of infrastructure investments, including the expansion of its facilities at Belo Horizonte's Pampulha Airport (Aeroporto da Pampulha).
The sales performance at LABACE 2026 makes aircraft sales one of the main indicators of the current state of Brazilian business aviation, further highlighting the event's importance to industry transactions.
