Our History
BC Helicopters Ltd. has been proudly operating from its current location next to Abbotsford Airport since the 1990s. With over 30 years of experience, we are committed to training the next generation of helicopter pilots—many of whom go on to successful careers both across Canada and on the international stage.
Throughout our history, and continuing today, we’ve operated a diverse fleet of aircraft. This has allowed us to offer a high-quality training environment and hands-on experience that prepares our students for the demands of the industry.
Our Mission
For over 30 years, we've remained a small, family-run business—and we're proud of it. Our goal has always been to provide a training experience that not only produces industry-ready pilots but also creates lasting memories and lifelong friendships.
We want our students to look back on their time with us as the meaningful beginning of an exciting career. Whether it's the thrill of your first solo from a Fraser River sandbar, heli-camping in the coastal mountains with classmates, or taking your parents on a scenic flight over Vancouver—these are the moments that make flight training unforgettable.
At BC Helicopters, we’re not just preparing you for a job. We’re helping you launch a new life in the sky—and we want you to know you chose the right place to start.
Looking to the future
Just like our students, the future of BC Helicopters Ltd. is full of possibilities. The aviation industry continues to evolve, bringing new methods of training and new aircraft that offer exciting opportunities for growth.
We began incorporating the Cabri G2 into our fleet because of its advanced technology and outstanding safety features, reflecting our commitment to providing the best possible training environment. We're always looking ahead, continually evaluating and seeking the next best aircraft to ensure our students have access to the most modern, reliable tools for their journey in aviation.
At BC Helicopters, safety is our highest priority. From rigorous maintenance protocols to comprehensive pilot training, we are committed to creating a culture where safety is never compromised. Every decision we make is guided by our dedication to protecting our students, staff, and passengers.
