Island Hoppers~ Fiji's Premier Air Transport Service
For more than 35 years Island Hoppers Fiji has been safely operating in Fiji and have built a wealth of knowledge about Fiji and its 330 Islands. We would like to share this knowledge with you by flying you to your holiday destination or showing the many sights of Fiji and its many islands.
Island Hoppers Fiji offers express transfers from Nadi Airport or Denarau to the Mamanuca Island Resorts, Coral Coast and beyond. We will pick you up from your International flight and bring you to our helipad, 2 minutes away. Sit in the comfort of our reception lounge and relax with a cold drink before being flown to your resort.
At Island Hoppers Fiji, we maximize your “Island Time”. No unnecessary delays or over-nighting waiting for other forms of transfers. Our 20 or 30 minute Scenic Flights are a great way to see a different view of Fiji over lush rain forests through the mountain highlands or over the beautiful islands.
The Eurocopter AS350 Écureuil (Squirrel) is a single-engine light helicopter originally designed and manufactured in France by Aérospatiale (now Airbus Helicopters). In North America, the AS350 is marketed as the AStar. The AS355 Ecureuil 2 is a twin-engine variant, marketed in North America as the TwinStar. The Eurocopter EC130 is a derivative of the AS350 airframe and is considered to be part of the Écureuil single-engine family.
In the early 1970s, Aérospatiale began development to replace the aging Alouette II design. The result was the AS350 design. The first prototype, powered by a Lycoming LTS101 turboshaft made its maiden flight on 27 June 1974, with the second prototype, powered by a Turbomeca Arriel 1A following on 14 February 1975. The Arriel powered version, the AS350B, intended for sale throughout the world except for North America, was certified in France on 27 October 1977, while the Lycoming powered AS350C (or AStar) was certified by the US Federal Aviation Administration on 21 December 1977. Customer deliveries began in March 1978 for the AS350B and April 1978 for the AS350C.
On 14 May 2005, an AS350 B3 piloted by Eurocopter test pilot Didier Delsalle touched down on the top of Mount Everest, at 8,848 m (29,030 ft). This record has been confirmed by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale. On 29 April 2010, a stripped-down AS350 B3 rescued three alpinists from Annapurna I, Nepal, at 8,091 metres, one at a time, the highest such rescue.
The Helicópteros do Brasil (Helibras) subsidiary of Eurocopter signed a contract for a major upgrade program on the Brazilian Army’s fleet of 36 AS350 Ecureuils.
