Investing — today is an extremely wide range of investment opportunities, ranging from real estate, cryptocurrency, environmentally friendly, electrical systems and other innovative projects.

Investing in the purchase of a helicopter is, in our opinion, a promising investment, at least for 10-12 years ahead.

What is so attractive about a helicopter and a helicopter as an investment?!

A helicopter is not only an excellent means of transportation, but also a promising business project. Owning a helicopter, you get unlimited opportunities, emphasize your image and status. And most importantly, you can fly freely in any direction.

A helicopter is not a cheap investment and requires a competent approach. When purchasing a helicopter, you should think about a number of things, for example, where and how you plan to fly, where the helicopter will be stored, how to maintain it and what is the main purpose of buying a helicopter.

There can be at least 3 such purposes:

1. You can buy a helicopter exclusively for personal use and completely independently engage in its operation, maintenance, etc.
2. Buying a helicopter, you fly it yourself or with a pilot for personal purposes, but in your free time, the helicopter flies commercial flights, sights and charter flights, thereby compensating for operating costs.
3. Buying a helicopter for your project, as part of a business idea. For example, you have a country entertainment complex, a golf club, a hotel, a yacht club or something innovative. A helicopter will improve logistics, attract attention, new potential clients and partners.

You can invest in a helicopter yourself, as well as divide the investment between two, three or even four investors, thereby obtaining a share or business ownership. Thus, you do not get a helicopter in constant availability, but divide it between partners according to the schedule when the helicopter will be at your disposal, by weeks or days.

The main advantage of such an investment is the reduction in cost for you, despite the fact that you retain access to a personal helicopter almost at any time, and as practice shows, it is safe to say that you will not need it every day for personal flights.

Which helicopter to buy?

Very good question. Of course, everything depends on the budget and the task. For our part, we will say 100% that this Robinson, as the helicopter is multifunctional, multi-tasking, recognizable, widespread and popular throughout the world, which gives it the opportunity to operate in many countries, on islands and different continents.

The most popular models are Robinson 44 and Robinson 66.

The Robinson 44 helicopter is suitable for private and commercial flights, such as sightseeing flights, is capable of performing transfers, as well as flights from point A to point B, but it does not have a luggage compartment. The helicopter is controlled by 1 pilot and takes 3 passengers on board.

The Robinson 66 helicopter is already a more universal machine in every sense. What are its pros and cons:

• Number of seats – 4 passenger and 1 seat for the pilot
• The helicopter is equipped with a luggage compartment, which is convenient when transporting passengers, for example, from the airport to a hotel
• Air conditioning in the basic configuration
• Easier to operate compared to Robinson 44

Which is better to choose? They are both incredible, maneuverable, fast with amazing visibility from the cockpit. But we responsibly recommend paying attention to the Robinson 66, for a number of reasons.

Let’s talk a little about the amounts for a new helicopter.

In 2010, at the Heli-Expo exhibition, the price of the Robinson 66 helicopter was 770,000 usd (may vary depending on the configuration). FAA certification in 2011 and the cost increased to 790,000 usd. After receiving the EASA certificate in 2014, the price of the helicopter was 840,000 usd. In 2021, the cost of a helicopter reaches 1,100,000 usd. In the past 2024 and the current 2025, the price of a helicopter is in the range of 1,200,000 – 1,400,000 usd.

In addition to new ones, there are many resource helicopters sold on the secondary market. Buying a new helicopter in 2015 for 700 – 800,000 usd, the market value of such a machine with an operating reserve of more than 1000 hours in 2025 is 750,000 usd. From these figures it follows that when buying a new helicopter, after 10 years of operation you will at least be able to sell it for the purchase price, but at the same time, think about it, all these years you will have a personal helicopter.

With proper management, a new helicopter will provide itself, refuel and service itself, and in today’s aggressive world conditions it can be placed virtually anywhere in the world, if necessary, relocated to any country where it makes sense to fly for yourself or for commercial purposes.
