Everyone Gets a Window Seat
Comfort and
Visibility: Unlike
other tour operators, everyone gets a window seat and we
can take up to 3 people in our Robinson
Raven helicopter. It's equipped with a music system, bubble
viewing windows, leather
seats, and BOSE
aviation noise canceling headsets  for
your comfort. These headsets have an amazing technology
built into them that listens for sound, and then reproduces
"anti-sound"
which has the net effect of reducing the overall noise in the
cockpit.
Performance and
Economy: The Robinson Raven helicopter is the world's top
selling helicopter for many reasons. It has an excellent
reputation for reliability, performance, and fuel efficiency.
This is one of the main reasons that our tour rates are substantially
less than most of our competitors.
 State of the Art Technology and
Safety: Our 2003 built helicopter has
some of the most advanced equipment available in the world today.
Passengers can view a precise and accurate visual representation of our
location at any point through our Garmin 430
moving
map Global Positioning System (GPS). This is widely considered to
be one of the most reliable panel mounted GPS systems available.
Our Pointer 3000-10
121.5
MHz Emergency Location Transmitter (ELT)
is a factory installed option and activates automatically in the event
of an incident or can be manually activated from inside the
cockpit.
We also carry a Fastfind
406 MHz Personal Locater Beacon (PLB) which  along
with the Pointer ELT provides
us with redundant, multi-frequency broadcasting of our
location in the
event of an emergency. The Fastfind PLB has the additional
advantage of the newer 406 MHz emergency system which uses COSPAS-SARSAT
satellites and is the most advanced and efficient method
for location available. For
more
information on this important feature, please visit the National Environmental Satellite,
Data, and Information Service website which is part of the
National Oceanic and
Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA).
For extended flights over water, passengers
will be wearing personal flotation
devices (PFD's).  The
world class model PFD by Sospenders
is auto-inflating and represents the
state of the art in
comfort and
technology. They provide 35 lbs of buoyancy and
inflate in
seconds once immersed in water. We also carry signal flares, and
other relevant emergency equipment.
