The right tool for the job ....
VHSG flies Eurocopter A-Star B2 helicopters for all of our operations. This powerful helicopter has an excellent safety record and is the best aircraft available for mountain flying. In fact, an A-Star recently set the high altitude landing
record when it touched down on Mount Everest.

Enjoy the ride ....
One of the first things you'll notice about flying in the Eurocopter A-Star B2 is that there isn't a bad seat in the house. The cockpit is configured so everyone has space and a great view. So sit back and enjoy some of the world’s best scenery and get a good look
Safety is more than a slogan ....
Our helicopter company, Northstar Trekking, is one of the finest helicopter operators in North America.
