We operate two Bell UH1 Iroquois and a Bell 206BII Jet Ranger helicopter. The Jet Ranger, statistically the worlds safest single-engined aircraft of all types, can carry 4 passengers and is equipped with a Bell Dual Litter Kit, half million candle-power Night Scanner searchlight, full avionics suite, intercom, cellular phone installation, large luggage locker, and a cargo hook with a maximum capacity of 1500lb.

The Bell Iroquois helicopters are ex-military aircraft and as such are classified "Restricted Category". This means they are not permitted to carry fare paying passengers but can carry up to 10 passengers if they are deemed necessary to complete a mission. These machines are primarily specialist heavy-lift machines and as such have a hook capacity of 4000lb.
