Elifly International S.r.l.

Elifly International S.r.l. is an Italian helicopter company headquartered on Via Casa Bianca in Esine, in the province of Brescia in Lombardy's Val Camonica. It has flown helicopter services since 1983 and is now run by the third generation of the founding family. Italy's aerospace and defence industry association, AIAD, also lists a local unit at Crotone Airport in Calabria.

Much of the company's work is specialist aerial work: sling-load and heavy-lift operations, precision installations, thermographic surveys, firefighting under the national COAN system, civil protection and offshore support. According to AIAD, it has logged more than 50,000 helicopter hours, over 40,000 of them in sling operations, on projects in Europe, South East Asia and North Africa.

For passengers, Elifly runs 'Elitaxi' private helicopter transfers in aircraft seating up to six, along with private and shared scenic flights over Lombardy, Lake Garda and Trentino. The company says its pilots fly in Italian and European airspace.

Elifly holds an ENAC passenger transport air operator certificate (AOC no. 176) and an authorisation for high-risk specialised operations (SPO no. 0025). It maintains its own aircraft under a Part 145 approval and has an ENAC-issued CAMO. Its full current fleet was not published on the sources reviewed.
