About the Airbus H145
The H145 is Airbus’s modern twin-engine helicopter, widely used in the UK charter market. Its Fenestron shrouded tail rotor makes it quieter than conventional helicopters, and the spacious cabin accommodates up to 8 passengers in VIP configuration.
Who Charters This Aircraft
Event-goers (Cheltenham, Ascot, Goodwood, Silverstone), wedding parties, corporate groups needing city-centre to city-centre transfers, and anyone where landing at a helipad rather than an airport saves significant time.
Charter Cost Context
