The AS350 series helicopter is a 5-passenger helicopter. We use the A-Star for patrols, crew movements, and general cargo and long line operations.

When needed, we can also lease aircraft to supplement our owned fleet for special projects.
Major helicopter maintenance is done in-house at our Pacoima facility. We also employ field maintenance personnel to support aircraft that are operated for extended periods of time. Summit Helicopter’s Parts Department maintains extensive stock of spare parts to expedite un-scheduled aircraft repairs.
Our computer software suite computerizes all aspects of aircraft maintenance and recordkeeping, parts procurement, and distribution and Operations Department billing. This system is field accessible, allowing most in-house and field maintenance to be paperless.
