Designed to exceed manufacturer specifications in safety and performance.
Custom Engineered Helicopters
The Basics
We start by ensuring that every single Robinson factory service recommendation and upgrades have been installed and applied to the helicopters.
What should be standard practice, often is not, as the FAA regulations only require the above process from Part 135 air-carrier operators and NOT flight schools.
We believe in enforcing the highest standards regardless of how we fly and operate the helicopters.
We maintain the helicopters as close as possible to factory new tolerances regardless of how many hours the helicopters have flown.
Custom Core Helicopters Enhancements
With a through review of every FAA certified and approved component for the Robinson R22 and R44 helicopters as well as Lycoming engines, we’ve enhanced our helicopters to exceed factory standards and specifications.
Engine Data Monitors
Our helicopters are outfitted with EDM’s that capture, report and alarm on the health of the entire engine, and every cylinder. Not just a single cylinder as per standard, with no alarms and no data collection. With continuos monitoring of aircraft and engine health you’ll know the full history and condition of the aircraft before your 1 foot off the ground.
Engine and Power-Plant Customization
Enhanced Air-Intake pipes
By utilizing specially chromed intake pipes we ensure that the helicopters have maximum performance under the most demanding environmental conditions.
Highest rated Spark-Plugs
Instead of the standard massive-type, we use the best fire-wire aerospace Iridium spark plugs. This ensures we get exceptional reliability from our high-performance engines under the most demanding conditions.
Enhanced Air-Filters
Instead of the standard automotive-grade paper and rubber-based air-filters, we’ve increased the safety and reliability by integrating an all aluminum based air-filter system that is much more reliable in all weather conditions.
Silicone Gaskets, Double Walled Tubing & more...
Yes, we really want our helicopters as money-no-object-bullet-proof as we can get them. Every component has been meticulous scrutinized and where-ever possible upgraded, this includes the gaskets, tubing, batteries and down to the individual screws.
Latest Avionics and Instruments
Digital Attitude Indicators
Instead of analog gyro based instruments that constantly break-down we’ve installed the latest digital attitude indicators that are incredibly lighter and more reliable. For that 1% chance that your caught in IMC conditions, an attitude indicator with slip-skid is installed in every helicopter.
Dual Channel Radio’s
Being that New York City is the busiest air-space in the world, you’ll appreciate the latest Garmin radio’s installed in our helicopters, which provides dual-channel capabilities giving you the ability to monitor a standby frequency while on a separate active channel. It’s yet another safety advantage when flying our helicopters.
Integrated GPS and iPad
A full Fore-Flight subscription and an iPad filled with the best aviation apps is integrated into each helicopter. You’ll find that flight-planning, checking the weather, and many other flight responsibilities that much easier.
Yes, you’ll find dual-GPS units in each helicopter, for redundancy and reliability it’s there at your fingertips.
Everything Else!
LED Lights
With the latest LED lights installed for landing, position and tail lights, it’s one less thing to worry about while flying. In addition due to the longitivtiy and efficiency of the LED lights, we fly with the landing lights on at all times increasing safety and visibility.
Leather Seats
We pay meticulous attention to the interior of the aircraft as well, you’ll find that the helicopter interior is maintained “like new” with leather seats, anti-skid plates, and a cabin you’ll be comfortable in and a delight to invite guests and friends to come fly.
