Family-owned helicopter operator with bases across northern Alberta since 1972
Delta Helicopters Ltd. is a family-owned helicopter operator in Alberta, Canada, founded in 1972. Its head office is in the St. Albert area north of Edmonton, and it runs a network of bases across the north of the province, including Rainbow Lake, the location on this listing.
The company flies its own helicopters. Its website lists the Airbus H125 (AS350B3) and the Bell 212HP, and a helicopter tracking database shows a history with Bell 204, Bell 206 and AS350 airframes. A third-party directory reported a fleet of around 25 helicopters across six bases in 2019, though that figure may be out of date.
Most of Delta's work supports industry and public agencies: oil and gas, forestry and wildfire suppression, mining and exploration, and thermal imaging. It also lists general charter and ambulance and medevac flights, which is how private customers would typically use it.
Bases listed on the company website are St. Albert, High Level, Lac La Biche, Slave Lake, Fort McMurray and Rainbow Lake, all in Alberta. The company describes its main market as Alberta and Western Canada.
For travellers, Delta is best suited to remote-area helicopter charter in northern Alberta rather than executive travel between city airports.
