Aircraft

We operate turbine-powered Bell 206 B3 Jet Ranger and Airbus Helicopter EC130B4 helicopters, the safest and most popular single engine helicopters in the world. The B3 Astar has set a world record high altitude landing on Mt. Everest in 2005 and the EC130 is the latest evolution of that popular aircraft which include numerous safety improvements, a quiet Fenestron tail rotor, air conditioning, and larger cabin with better visibility.

The Bell Jet Ranger can transport up to four passengers and the EC 130 can transport up to seven passengers. Our aircraft are designed to operate in high altitude and mountain wilderness conditions.
