Metro Aviation, Inc. is divided into two primary areas of focus. Our Aircraft Completion Center installs full Air Medical, Law Enforcement, and VIP/Corporate kits, components, and avionics packages for new and existing customers. Our completion center is the largest and most comprehensive Airbus completion center in the world. In addition to the installations performed by our Aircraft Completion Center, we are also heavily involved in operating aircraft for hospitals across the country. We are a traditional provider meaning we have no medical employees on staff. We believe there should be a separation of duties in this regard as a serious conflict of interest can occur. Safety is our most important factor in deciding to fly. Please contact Kristen King Holmes at kking@metroaviation.com if you would like additional information about Metro Aviation.

Robinson Helicopter Company was founded in 1973 by Frank Robinson, whose vision was to produce the world’s highest quality, most reliable helicopters in the most efficient, cost effective way possible. Robinson introduced the two-place piston powered R22 in 1979. The affordable, personal-type design quickly made helicopter ownership accessible to a broader audience and changed the face of general aviation. Today, the company’s top sellers are its R44 and R66 helicopters, respectively. To date, Robinson Helicopter Company has produced more than 13,000 helicopters. Robinson puts great emphasis on research and development, continually making improvements and offering new technology. Among its latest introductions are a cargo hook for the R66 and an autopilot designed specifically for helicopters. Robinson manufactures, assembles, inspects, and flight tests all of its helicopters at its Torrance, California factory. To ensure the highest quality and to maximize efficiency, the company manufactures a large percentage of parts in house and employs a highly skilled workforce. Robinson also offers monthly pilot safety and maintenance courses at the factory that attract a global audience.
