At H5 Helicopters, safety isn’t just a policy — it’s part of our DNA. Every flight we operate is backed by decades of experience, meticulous attention to detail, and an unwavering commitment to doing things the right way. Whether you’re joining us for a breathtaking Grand Canyon tour or a quick charter from Scottsdale to Sedona, you can relax knowing you’re flying with a company that treats safety as its highest priority.
Here are the top five reasons guests consistently trust H5 Helicopters:
1. Experienced Pilots with a Proven Safety Record
Our pilots bring over 16,000 hours of combined, incident-free flight time to every mission. Their backgrounds include executive charters, aerial film operations, and scenic tours across some of the Southwest’s most dynamic terrain. Each pilot undergoes continuous training and proficiency checks to ensure their skills remain sharp — because experience and preparation make all the difference in the air.
2. A Team Backed by 80+ Years of Maintenance Expertise
Our on-site maintenance team has more than 80 years of combined A&P (Airframe and Powerplant) experience, ensuring every component of our aircraft is inspected and maintained to the highest standards. Our protocol includes pre-flight, weekly, quarterly, and annual inspections to ensure that no detail goes unnoticed. This depth of knowledge allows us to go beyond what’s required — and that’s exactly what we do.
3. Operating Under FAA Part 91 and Part 135 Compliance
H5 Helicopters operates under FAA Part 91 and Part 135 regulations, the same high standards followed by commercial air carriers. These protocols govern everything from pilot duty hours and maintenance tracking to operational control and weather minimums, ensuring that each flight meets the strictest federal safety criteria.
4. Aircraft with a Proven Global Safety Record
We fly the Airbus AS350-B2, one of the most respected and reliable helicopters in the world. Trusted by law enforcement, medical, and utility operators worldwide, the AS350-B2 is known for its outstanding performance, safety record, and stability.
5. A Culture of Cleanliness, Order, and Attention to Detail
Guests often tell us they can “feel” our commitment to safety the moment they step into our immaculately kept Scottsdale hangar. We believe that how you do one thing is how you do everything — and for us, that means keeping every space, tool, and aircraft pristine. From detailed pre-flight inspections to our comprehensive passenger safety briefings before each flight, no detail is too small when it comes to your safety.

At H5 Helicopters, we go one step further than what’s required because your trust means everything. Every decision we make — from maintenance schedules to flight planning — is rooted in a commitment to safety, precision, and excellence.
