Now that is disappointing since one off our members here is connected to the airline, with the 146 painted out posted a few weeks back gave us some window and started me thinking .. just danm unfortunate !

Sounds like Helipro is out of action too, with 30 helicopters and a few other aircraft? Wow...I imagine that's going to have quite an impact.

In the south we see very little off Helipro other than in magazines, truthfully I have never seen one off the company's aircraft, Vincent I have seen the Dash .. and years back the DC-3, the other impact with Vincent would be the bandaged wrap Jetstream for medvac flights.

Helipro's heli's are back flying, but the fixed wing division isn't.

Gutted for the Vincent family. Awesome people. Hope they find a way to rise from the ashes. Business is tough, could happen to anyone.

I think they have done extremely well to last this long , it might be back to the DC-3 and tour flights I wish.
