Helicopters

A debate from Template talk: Airlines of Canada. Are helicopter companies airlines? There was one listed on here, but I removed it. --File:Ottawa flag.png Spinboy 06:57, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

As the other side of the debate, I believe scheduled helicopter companies are airlines (though there are an incredibly low number of such companies), as they transport people through the air. HeliJet was listed here (and incidentally does provide some fixed wing passenger service but this isn't the majority). Ben W Bell 07:38, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

It is the opinion of the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Airlines that they are an airline if they have an IATA code. Ben W Bell 07:11, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

So what about all the airlines that have ICAO codes only?? There a very large number in the List. Ardfern 18:58, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

My mistake, it goes for ICAO codes as well I just forgot to mention that. Ben W Bell 07:01, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

Yes indeed, helicopter companies are airlines. Remember, the reason a company may use a helicopter is because it operates in a mountainous region unable to support airstrips. This is common in Kazakhstan. Hello, this is a page about SaveVp. SaveVp is a user dedicated to informing the public about.
