Since our establishment in 1955, we have grown with increased demand for heavy lift services.
Heavy lift services have been an important part of our history and account for a major portion of our aviation business.
During the period of high economic growth, we were involved in numerous difficult projects including constructing high-voltage power lines in mountains, hydraulic power plants and dams.
Among the challenging projects, we participated in a project to lift a heavy weather observation radome to top of Mt. Fuji at 3,776 meters(12,388ft).
With Sikorsky S62 single engine helicopter, the crew successfully touched down on the ground and released the heavy radome at 08:13AM on 15th August in 1965.
This historical success contributed to recognize the great ability of helicopters.

With the recent increasing interest in potential of natural resource under the sea such as oil gas and rare earth, we have increased our flights to oil drilling rigs or survey ships.
We are the only operator in Japan which can conduct off-shore flight by helicopters. We operate off-shore transport almost every day.

We provide helicopter emergency medical service called “Doctor-Heli”. We contract with more than 10 base hospitals all over Japan and helicopters are on stand-by with flight crews and doctors every day.The typical difference from other countries is that medical crews including doctors and nurses always fly with Doctor-Heli. Once receiving a request for Doctor-Heli after an accident occurs, Doctor-Heli delivers doctors and nurses to the rendezvous point where they join an ambulance. They decide the most suitable medical treatment for the patient. With the needs of quick medical care, Doctor-Heli returns to the base hospital immediately. They inform vital signs of the patient to the hospital on live so that the base hospital can prepare for the treatment. Reducing initial time helps to increase the survival rate dramatically.

We often watch a live video of news footage on TV. Live video is an easy way to understand what is happening on site, providing our lives with useful information. We have been working with numerous TV stations throughout Japan. With the request from the news center, our aircrafts equipped with high definition camera with gyro-stabilized system can take-off shortly to capture live footage.

Compared with fixed-wing aircrafts, helicopters offer more extensive views from wide windows. We can meet the needs in regional development, area marketing that requires precise regional information from the air. We carry out a survey that provides our client with essential information for their decision making.
Disruption in electricity supply could lead to serious damage to human life. We have been working with electric power company to survey and inspect power line to keep transmitting electricity. We are a pioneer in operating Lidar and high definition camera with gyro-stabilized system in Japan.

Agriculture air spraying has been one of our primary helicopter businesses. While unmanned aerial vehicles have become more common and widely used these days, our helicopters play an integral role to preserve nature and agricultural products.
