Delta Helicopters Ltd.

Delta Helicopters Ltd. is a family-owned Canadian helicopter company. It was established in 1972 and says it has more than 50 years in the helicopter industry. Its head office is at St. Albert Heliport in Sturgeon County, Alberta. Fort McMurray is one of several regional bases, not the main office.

Most of the company's work is industrial and utility flying rather than executive passenger travel. Its website lists services for oil and gas, forestry, mining and exploration, ambulance and medevac, and thermal imaging. It also offers general charter. The company describes its specialised work as including wildfire suppression, exploration support and aerial applications.

The website lists two helicopter types: the Airbus H125 (AS350B3) light single-engine helicopter and the Bell 212HP/BLR medium twin-engine helicopter. The company describes its fleet as its own, and it publishes a charter tariff on its site. This suggests it flies its own aircraft rather than booking flights with other operators. Flyers should confirm the operating certificate and current fleet numbers directly with the company.

The company says it operates throughout Alberta and western Canada. Besides St. Albert and Fort McMurray, it lists bases at High Level, Lac La Biche, Slave Lake and Rainbow Lake. Most of these are at local airports in northern Alberta.

For private flyers, the company is most relevant for helicopter charter into remote parts of northern Alberta and for project or industrial support. It is not a business jet charter provider. The website has a Health, Safety and Environment section for anyone who wants to review its safety approach before booking.
