Helicopter Industry Hopes To Get A Boost From 2017 Heli-Expo Show

Some 20,000 helicopter industry professionals are gathering in Dallas for the annual HeliExpo show. Helicopter Association International, which organizes the annual event, says that the 700 exhibitors have booked more floor space than at any previous event. That could be a sign that the industry’s fortunes are bouncing back, bolstered partly by rising oil prices that could spur increased offshore flying activity. AIN editors give us their assessment of the show highlights.
