“I couldn’t be happier with the look that Rob was able to obtain with the paint job and the finish out and the quality and the comfort,” said Groesbeck. “This is the kind of helicopter that, for people that know quality, when they get up to it, run their hand over the paint, look at the interior fit and finish — those are the guys who are going to go, ‘This was done right.’ ”

Flying out of Grande Prairie, Alberta, Gemini provides comprehensive service to Canada’s oilfields.

“As far as we’re concerned, the FX conversion is the only way to go if you plan on investing money in your AStar fleet. What the FX2 kit does is turn any AStar into a B2, but with better performance and simplified, more reliable electric systems, not to mention lower operating costs. The service from Heli-Lynx so far has been excellent, what else can we ask for??”

Again, on another occasion, I successfully landed at an altitude of 14,200 ft with 3 people (including me) with 55% fuel and the performance was very good.”
