About Heli-TV
Heli-TV SA is a helicopter operator headquartered at Lodrino airfield in the Swiss canton of Ticino. The company was founded in the late 1970s in the canton of Fribourg and bought in 1984 by Giovanni Frapolli. It then operated from Lugano Agno airport before moving to the military airfield at Lodrino in 1994. It holds air operator certificate CH.AOC.3028 from the Swiss Federal Office of Civil Aviation (FOCA).
The company states that it offers passenger transport, cargo transport and aerial work by helicopter, from the city to the high mountains. Its listed specialities include moving goods, assembling power lines and prefabricated houses, logging and cutting trees in built up areas. It names the training of young local pilots and task specialist operators as one of its main aims, and it states that it employs about forty full time staff and about ten auxiliaries.
Its FOCA fleet consists of five single engine Airbus H125 (AS350 Ecureuil) helicopters, a twin engine Airbus H145 and two medium helicopters of the Bell 204, 205 and 210 family, and its team page lists pilots rated on the Bell 205 A1++. No third party safety audit is published for the company.
