Precision Helicopter is welcoming the addition of three Airbus AS350B3’s and one Bell 206 Jet Ranger to its fleet as a result of its recent acquisition of J.R. Helicopters. The investment supports Precision’s plans to diversify its operations to include heli-skiing, U.S. Forest Service short-haul and fire suppression. Precision currently operates multiple turbine helicopters, along with Guimbal Cabri G2 piston trainers.

“Just five years ago we set out on a new path to gain diversity and strength through customer cooperation and employing the right team. This industry is not easy, but surrounding ourselves with good people, great customers and loyal partners helps make it a lot easier,” said Precision CEO and managing director David Rath.

Precision (Booth N3525) is one of four companies that make up the Precision family, with other entities offering multiple services for fixed-wing aircraft, rotorcraft, and unmanned aerial operations.
