Born in 1982 as a helicopter charter, training and maintenance operation, Metro Aviation is the largest traditional airmed operator and completion centre in the world, operating 155 aircraft for 39 US programmes.

Metro Aviation has been training Airmedic pilots and instructors on its flight simulator. Once the staff are up to speed, Airmedic will be ready to put its trio of new EC145e rotorcraft to EMS use in eastern Canada.

For the past five years, Metro Aviation and FlightSafety International have worked together to deliver single and multi engine helicopter training. FlightSafety is also expanding the scope of its tuition in Denver, Colorado.
