How Private Helicopter Management Works

You keep ownership of your helicopter. We handle the work around it: maintenance, hangar storage, trained crew and clear accounts of your aircraft’s flights, income and costs.

When you are not using the aircraft, you can choose to charter it under our Air Operator Certificate and use that income to lower the cost of ownership. If you would rather keep it for personal use only, that works too.
