Snowmobile Recovery Services
You know how challenging it can be to get your sled off the mountain if it gets stuck or breaks down. That’s where helicopter snowmobile recovery services come in!
When Covid-19 precautions started affecting operations in the Spring of 2020, Yellowhead Helicopters with the help of Avio Design Group worked on developing a barrier for the cabin of the AStar AS350 and Bell 206/212 helicopters. The design’s supplemental type certificate (STC SH20-26) was approved by Transport Canada in the summer and since then has been installed in active aircraft in the YHL fleet.
On top of the health protocols we already practice – temperature checks, wearing masks inside the aircraft, disinfecting/cleaning, and social distancing whenever possible – the barrier further reduces the risk of virus transmission between clients and flight crew.

YHL provides vital support for wildfire suppression efforts through its fleet of specialized equipment and expert crew. We provide heli transport for firefighters & supplies to remote locations, contributing to the overall response effort.
Job opportunities for low-time pilots used to be sparse. Typically, their first job would be pushing a broom around the hangar, fuel jockey, working in dispatch learning the ropes with the occasional flying project to build their skills. Now with a growing labour shortage in the industry, helicopter companies and their clients are having to rethink how to operate with fewer higher skilled pilots.
CAMP Systems International & YHL signed an agreement on Aircraft Health Management software for the YHL fleet of helicopters.
