Firefighting

Mountain West Helicopters is currently a contractor to the U.S. Government for wildfire suppression. We have held contracts continuously for the past 25 years. Today we have contracts in place with the United States Forest Service, Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management, Cal Fire, and Oregon Department of Forestry. Using our fleet of helicopters including the Kaman K1200 K-Max, Bell UH-1H, or the Airbus H125 we can fulfill any firefighting requirement. We utilize the most modern power-fill water buckets, fuel trucks, and equipment and can rapidly dispatch to any fire emergency. Our services can be used nationwide and are not confined to any particular region.
