Global Helicopter Service (GHS) - one of Europe’s leaders in providing worldwide helicopter services - has recently become an approved NVIS operator with the capability available through EASA certification on the Airbus H225 and Bell 412 helicopters. GHS can also deliver cockpit modifications for night vision goggle flight operations for the Bell 412 and Airbus H225 offering both EASA and FAA Supplementary Type Certificates (STC).

This NVIS approval will be closely followed by the inclusion of an NVIS rating as part of the special mission training under ATO approval. 

GHS has made significant strides in extending our scope of services through the approval of CAMO and Part 145 service to manage airworthiness activity and maintain the S76C++ to EASA standards. Furthermore, we expect to receive the approval for the AS332 Part 145 Base Maintenance before the end of the year. 

Other significant developments include the readiness to turn out a Bell 412 from the main base of operation in Kirchanschöring, ready for Fire Fighting with a 1500L Bambi bucket.

GHS is pleased to announce the second contract extension from the European Defence Agency (EDA) to provide Aeromedical services to the Belgian Defence deployments in Niger. GHS had started this successful and critically important service in January 2020 and will continue to do so for another 12 months

All of the achievements above pays testament to our ongoing commitment to provide efficient, safe and highly important helicopter services to clients across the world. GHS CEO, Dominik Goldfuss confirmed “We’re excited to continue to grow our support for helicopter operations and associated services going forward.”
