Guardian Helicopters, Inc. UH-1H

Guardian is pleased to announce the addition of a Bell UH-1H ‘Huey’ helicopter to our fleet. This aircraft was completely refurbished by the talented staff at Rotorcraft Support, Inc.and just returned from Mexico flying firefighting missions.  The new Huey performed flawlessly under extensive use and extreme conditions. Upon return it was ready to go right into our rotation for various heavy lift jobs.

This Huey has a lift capacity of 4000 pounds on external hook and is perfect for various lift work.

Prior to going to Mexico, our new addition was put to use with short notice on frost prevention in Delano, CA. Helicopters are used to prevent frost on crops by moving warmer air from above the crops to the ground.

Current Projects:
Guardian has been working on various projects and currently has aircraft, pilots and ground support crew and vehicles stationed across the United States on fire fighting contracts in addition to various lift jobs and aerial photo shoots scheduled for the aircraft and crew that are currently at our base of operations at Van Nuys airport.
