About the Company:

Helicentre Aviation was founded in 2001, originally based at Coventry Airport in the West Midlands, now headquartered at Leicester Airport with its multi-engine training and operations centre of excellence at London Oxford Airport.

Since opening, its training academy, commercial and utility operations have gone from strength to strength and the original expectations of creating a one-stop training academy and commercial air operation were far exceeded. Helicentre Aviation has trained hundreds of professional helicopter pilots, feeding the crew supply chain globally, both offshore and onshore.

Today Helicentre Aviation owns and operates a fleet of 16 helicopters including Cabri G2, Robinson R44 and AgustaWestland AW109 helicopters operating the largest onshore aerial surveillance and training contracts in the UK.
