Safety
Safety is very important to us, that is why we ensure the entire crew receives a safety briefing and demonstration before working around our helicopters. The entire crew receives a safety briefing and demonstration before entering into use on a show. We have contacts that are highly skilled mountain guides. Their abilities include maximizing the loading of an aircraft, ensuring efficient use of the aircraft and providing safety for all helicopter operations on a film set.

Blackcomb Helicopters highly recommends the use of safety coordinators. They create both a safe operation and a planned approach to helicopter use.
