ABOUT US
Heliflight – Independent, Trusted Aviation Experts
At Heliflight, we provide honest, expert aviation advice backed by decades of real-world experience. As a boutique consultancy, we offer a personalized, client-focused approach—when you work with us, you’re speaking directly with decision-makers and industry experts who have been in the field and understand the realities of aviation.
With over 100 years of combined expertise in helicopter and fixed-wing operations, we have built a global reputation for problem-solving, risk management, and operational strategy. Founded in 1988 in New Zealand, Heliflight started as a specialist helicopter training organization, training over 600 commercial pilots and instructors before evolving into a respected global consultancy with strong industry ties worldwide. We were an operator for 30 years, so we know what’s real.
We specialize in feasibility studies, accident investigations, regulatory compliance, and third-party due diligence assessments, ensuring safe, efficient, and compliant operations. Unlike larger firms, we cut through bureaucracy and focus on real solutions.
Our problem-solving mindset means we approach challenges with practical, tailored strategies that work in the real world.
What sets us apart is our ability to break down complex aviation issues for boards of directors, executives, and key stakeholders.
Aviation decisions come with high stakes—financial, operational, and regulatory—and we excel at translating technical complexities into clear, actionable insights that support strategic decision-making.
Clients choose Heliflight because they want honest, no-nonsense guidance from experienced aviation professionals who have been in the industry, faced the challenges, and know how to get things done. Whether you’re expanding operations, assessing risks, or need hands-on operational support, we provide clear, practical advice—no fluff, no sales pitch, just real solutions from real experts.
If you’re looking for a boutique aviation consultancy that offers direct access to trusted decision-makers, a proven ability to solve complex problems, and expertise in presenting aviation issues at the highest level, get in touch today.
