Vanair fleet and team
Our Mission: At Helitowcart* our mission is to design, manufacture and distribute helicopter towing devices and accessories for light to medium weight helicopters. We focus on pilot autonomy and helicopter operation efficiency. Our aim is to provide high quality, affordable and reliable products, capable of multiple applications and incorporating superior aesthetics.
Our History: As a long time fixed wing pilot new to the helicopter world, I developed the Helitowcart after experiencing annoyance at having to resort to asking for help for basic helicopter ground handling. Having already developed other products and spent over twenty years in the manufacturing industry, designing the product was a fun challenge. Soon demand developed and manufacturing was set-up. After only six years, our products have already been sold in over thirty countries. We thrive at the idea of answering to the need of busy, independent and efficient pilots and operators around the world.
Our Destination: Product development is definitely a driving force in our enterprise. Enthusiasm combined with customer demand has lead to the continuous extension of our product line. Our daily target is to keep offering quality accessories at sensible prices.
