AIR AMBULANCE AGREEMENT Richmond, BC (April 16, 2019): Helijet is pleased to announce that it has renewed its dedicated air medical contract with British Columbia Emergency Health Services (BCEHS) for an additional four years, effective April 1, 2019.

All of these aircraft continue to provide air ambulance service for patients around the province on a 7/24/365-day operation. All of Helijet’s aircraft are NVIS or NVG-Night Vision Goggle capable allowing increased operational reliability while ensuring the safest possible flying conditions.
