Charm Aviation will offer travellers more destinations and clean, safe flight operations. Its order of Electra aircraft has the range to transform NYC heliports from urban flight terminals into regional transport hubs.

Under a lease agreement, PHI MRO Services installed floats and air conditioning in the Bell 407 helicopters provided to Charm Aviation. The two companies are looking forward to working together again in the future.

Charm and LIFT aim to operate semi-autonomous HEXA aircraft in the greater NYC area. Like Segway tours, but in the air; geo-fenced with zero emissions and quieter than helicopters. Initial trials could start by end 2023.
