Robinson Delivers 8000th helicopter

Robinson Helicopter Company achieved another milestone when is 8000th helicopter was flight certified. The new, solid green, Robinson R44 Raven II S/N 11984 was ordered by SkySales Aviation (Christchurch, New Zeland) for a private owner.

Owned by Alex Rodgers, SkySales started its affiliation with Robinson first as a service center in 1986 before being named a Robinson dealer in the early 1990s. SkySales also perfoms maintenance and overhauls, files charters, and conducts pilot training.

Robinson Helicopter Company was founded in 1973. The first R22 was delivered in October 1979. In 1993 the R44 came online and is now the best selling helicopter in the world. The R44 is offered in two models: The Raven I and the more powerful Raven II. The Raven II is available in four specialty configurations – Police Helicopter, Newscopter, Clipper, and IFR Trainer.
