Helicopter Fleet

For the flying comfort and safety of our guests, we have chosen one of the best rotorcrafts in business aviation – the Eurocopter AS350 B3 Ecureuil. This small single-engine helicopter has excellent aviation, technical and flight safety features. It provides the fastest, quietest ride as well as the highest level of passenger comfort in its class.

The AS350 B3 model is powered by a powerful Turbomeca Arriel turbine-engine, with a digital control system. It can fly at an altitude of up to 7,010 m with a full payload. It is designed to carry out the most demanding missions, including flying at high altitude and in extreme weather conditions.

Eurocopter AS350 B3 has a seating capacity of six people – ideal for a group of four skiers, one guide and the pilot. It is equipped with a special basket for transporting skis and snowboards and has plenty of cargo space to store all the necessary rescue equipment and food. This helicopter is exceptionally comfortable due to incredibly low noise and vibration levels, unlike the more customary MI-8 used in the Caucasus; also, it can land on smaller landing sites in the mountains, which makes it perfect for rugged terrain and small group heli-skiing.

To ensure the highest possible standards of flight safety and comfort, Heliksir Caucasus LLC collaborates with leading European helicopter operators, including SAF Hélicoptères, Héli-Challenge, Eagle Valais, HTM Helicopter Travel Munich, and Eliossola S.r.l.. These internationally recognized companies bring decades of experience in alpine and high-mountain operations, allowing us to maintain exceptional levels of safety, reliability, and passenger comfort.

Starting from the 2026 season, Heliksir operates in partnership with AeroExpedition, further reinforcing our commitment to delivering safe, reliable, and seamless flight operations across Georgia’s breathtaking mountain landscapes.
