PremiAir flies helicopters

PremiAir has been flying its fleet of twin-engined helicopters repatriating businessmen between London and Dublin that were stranded when the UK closed its controlled airspace last week. The company also made flights using helicopters flying to and from Germany, Belgium and France that was until France closed their airspace to Visual Flight Rules (VFR) traffic.

PremiAir has two types of twin-engined helicopters in its fleet, the Sikorsky S-76 and Eurocpter AS-355 Twin Squirrel.

PremiAir operated these flights under VFR or Visual Meteorological Conditions (VMC). The company consulted their in-house meteorologist before performing these flights and during the time of the flights the company was constantly monitoring the weather situation for any significant changes. www.premiair.co.uk
