Welcome to Northwest Helicopters |
Since 1978 Northwest has provided helicopter services around the world.
In the beginning, the company utilized a single Hiller 12E in serving
the forest industry in Washington. After working for the company for a
year, Brian Reynolds purchased the company in 1985. Over the last 20
years the company has transformed from a single ship operation to the
largest helicopter company in the state of Washington. Flying five
different models of helicopters, we can respond to almost any job
anywhere in the nation.
We now have a separate side of the operation that performs outside
maintenance and specializes in the overhaul and remanufacturing of the
Bell UH-1H helicopter. We have over 16 years of experience with the
UH-1H and over 50,000 hours of operational experience. We have rebuilt
more than 50 Huey helicopters that have gone to customers all over the
world.
You can see details of our new facility on the Heliport page of this
site. It took over six years to design and two years to build. The site
was planned from day one to be a Heliport. It is the most advanced and
modern Helicopter facility in the country. It can have up to 18
helicopters operating simultaneously in day or night operations. On any
given day there are nearly 30 helicopters on site either on the landing
area or in any one of the hangars. This is truly a helicopters only
site.
Please visit this site often to see all our changes as they occur. We
hope to have our new Heliport Cam up and running soon. This will allow
you to watch helicopters come and go in real time.
Thanks for visiting and watching as we continue to provide the best in helicopter services around the world.
