We are happy to be the small guys offering flight training to a select few who aim to achieve safe and highly professional standards. Pacific Helicopters is proud to be the first in New Zealand to receive the new revolutionary Guimbal Cabri G2 Helicopter. The Cabri G2 is the only piston helicopter designed from scratch with the safety of its occupants as top priority. It delivers a level of safety that was until now reserved for the military and a few expensive turbine helicopters. In fact it is the only piston engine helicopter to be certified under EASA CS-27 and FAA Far 27 rules. Pacific Helicopters is full of a vast array of knowledge with the owners previously operating an extensive New Zealand based company operating numerous helicopters including Squirrels, Jetrangers, Hughes 500′s, and the BK117
