VIH Aerospace Competes Critical Night Vision Systems For Air Ambulance Ops

Completes Three Installations Under STC For Helijet International

VIH Aerospace has completed installations of three Supplemental Type Certified, Night Vision systems for Helijet International Inc.

Danny Sitnam, president-CEO at Helijet, explains that VIH Aerospace and its development partner, Rebtech Technologies (Rebtech) were selected to perform the night vision installations for Helijet’s S-76C+ helicopters because of the level of confidence his team has in the reputation and depth of NVIS knowledge and expertise held by VIHA and Rebtech, as partners in designing and performing these upgrades.

VIH Aerospace and Rebtech are recognized leaders in the development and integration of NVIS systems for a wide variety of helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft operating in EMS, Defense and various other sectors.

The S76C+ night vision system lighting upgrade was managed and performed by the VIH Aerospace avionics team, in collaboration with Rebtech and Night Flight Concepts. The detailed project included analysis of the existing lighting configuration to determine upgrade requirements, and the subsequent design and installation of the night vision systems.

Helijet’s three Sikorsky S-76C+ helicopters are dedicated to supporting the British Columbia Emergency Health Service’s BC Ambulance Service.

Aircraft types supported by VIHA include:

  • Sikorsky S-61/S-76/S-92
  • Bell Helicopter 205/206/212/222/230/407/412/429/UH1
  • Airbus AS350/AS355/H130/H135
