Congratulations to Leonardo Helicopters on reaching a milestone in the construction of the Florida Support Center near NAS Whiting Field! We're proud to collaborate with Leonardo Helicopters and continue leading the charge for advancing naval aviation in Florida 🚁
On July 12, Leonardo celebrated a significant milestone in the construction of the Florida Support Center, located near Naval Air Station Whiting Field, with a Steel Topping ceremony. The ceremony brought together #LeonardoHelicopters US CEO, Clyde M. Woltman, and the dedicated construction crew – Greenhut Construction Company, Inc., HPM, Southern Earth Sciences, Inc., and Covenant Steel Ltd to mark the completion of the steel framework and the transition into the next construction phase. During the ceremony, Mr. Woltman thanked Santa Rosa County Board of Commissioners, Santa Rosa County Economic Development Office, and Space Florida for their unwavering commitment and collaboration, acknowledging that their instrumental role was crucial in bringing this important project to fruition. Following the ceremony, Mr. Woltman, joined by guests, embarked on a site tour, culminating in a symbolic gesture of signing a steel beam placed into position. This act served as a testament to the collective effort and dedication that have brought the construction to this pivotal point, marking a concrete step towards the realization of #Leonardos’ Florida Support Center, a facility poised to play a vital role in Naval aviation.
