The Right Helicopter for the Job

The Schweizer 300C is an excellent helicopter appropriate for many applications. If your job requires different equipment we also have access to and can supply the Bell 206 Jet Ranger, Robinson R-44 or Bell 47.

At Point of View Helicopter Services we are pleased to offer reduced rates for uses that fit our point of view-namely environmental and social justice causes that are helping to make the world a better place and possibly even save it. It is our desire to make the unique perspectives and uses gained from a helicopter available to non-profit communities that might benefit, but could not normally afford it.
