Bamberg-based BHS Helicopterservice has changed its name to BHS Aviation GmbH. At the same time, the subsidiary DC Aviation Switzerland is changing its name to BHS Aviation AG, in order to create a uniform image with the slogan ‘Excellence in business aviation’. Nothing will change for the companies’ clients, because the services and contacts will remain the same.

“Homogenising our company names is the next strategic step following the acquisition of DC Aviation Switzerland AG this May,” explains BHS Aviation GmbH CEO Maximilian Stoschek. “The abbreviation BHS stands for Business Aviation, High-Level Operation and Safety First, and is a reflection of our guiding principles: we understand the needs of our international clients and offer them a full package of world-class, personalised services along with safety standards that far exceed the legal requirements.”

Together the companies in the BHS Aviation Group have over 40 years of experience in exclusive passenger and business helicopter flights. Four helicopters with up to eight seats each, comfortable furnishings and state-of-the-art avionics operate from the Bamberg, Germany and Zurich, Switzerland locations.

The service portfolio also includes professional aircraft management. This comprises flight planning and organisation, providing experienced professional pilots and crew members along with maintenance, insurance and optional helicopter chartering among other services. BHS has a partnership with DC Aviation Stuttgart to operate flights with business jets. As a licensed handling agent, the company can also take over business jet and helicopter management at Zurich airport on request, including service for passengers and crew members.
