Chief executive Ian Honnery said, “The preservation of public health will always be our paramount commitment.

“Although government restrictions on gatherings and travel may be lifted by our original June dates, we have decided to act early and delay Rotortech 2020 to October in order to provide clarity for our stakeholders.

“This will allow the industry to focus on managing through the COVID-19 crisis, with an October Rotortech 2020 then bringing the community together as a strong industry recovery event before operators are fully committed to the coming fire season.”
