Operating from two bases in the south of England, FAST Helicopters is one of the UK's leading helicopter companies. Established in 1990, we are a well-respected air operator and training organisation, monitored and regulated by the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). Our large and varied fleet of aircraft provides us with an ideal platform for a range of charter and training services, coupled with our modern engineering and parts departments. All this plus a busy aircraft sales division means we really can claim to be a 'one stop' helicopter provider.

Charter: Customers looking to hire a helicopter can do so safe in the knowledge that we are a CAA approved provider of Public Transport flights. We can offer charter flights on aircraft ranging from the Robinson R22 to the Eurocopter AS355 Twin Squirrel.
Training: For the student, we offer a complete range of helicopter training services; from an introductory Trial Lesson through to an Instrument Rating on Multi Engine aircraft. Once their licence is issued, students are able to self fly hire helicopters from us. Due to the size of our fleet, it is rare that we do not have an aircraft available for hire.
Sales and management: We can help with every stage of buying and operating your next helicopter; from sourcing an aircraft, to inspection, purchase and delivery. Our after sales services include attractive lease back options so aircraft can continue to provide a revenue stream for their owners. We can also take care of managing your aircraft including maintenance, paperwork and hangarage.
Engineering: Our EASA Part 145 maintenance department at Shoreham is fully equipped to cater for a broad range of aircraft types. These include Robinson, Schweizer, Enstrom, MD and Bell/Agusta. Why not visit our modern, spacious facility at Shoreham to discuss your individual aircraft engineering and maintenance requirements.
