We choose not to embark on anything unless we can do it exceptionally well. From our humble beginnings in a small shed to our award winning heliport of today we have achieved many milestones. The first to operate EC130's and the Twin Engine Bell 429 in New Zealand, we lead the way in state-of-the-art machines and equipment.
