Construction Helicopters, Inc. (d/b/a CHI Aviation), a Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB), is one of very few top-tier operators providing both Rotary-Wing and Fixed-Wing Expeditionary Airlift to the US Military in some of the most remote and austere Areas of
Responsibility (AORs) in the world. Since 2011, CHI Aviation has maintained Commercial Airlift Review Board (CARB) approval, supporting the US Department of Defense (DOD) in Africa and the Middle East with a fleet of Sikorsky S-61N heavy-lift helicopters. CHI Aviation also provides CARB-approved Fixed-Wing airlift support to the DOD with a fleet of CASA 212s. Our US Military partners downrange know that they can trust CHI Aviation’s safe, reliable and versatile airlift support platforms because of our industry-leading safety record, our long-standing Operational Readiness Rates (ORR) of more than 97%, and our turnkey solutions which match the right machine to their complex and critical missions. CHI Aviation’s affiliate companies (Helimax Aviation and Resolute ISR) also support US Government customers with Aerial Fire Suppression and Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Services.
