“We had an AMAZING time. My husband and I just got married the day before our helicopter tour, the girls set up the golf cart with a cute “just married” sign. Matt, the pilot, was amazing and extremely educational. He personally took time to chat with us before the flight. He was very informative and we had a smooth ride and felt very safe with him. He’s a great pilot and the company caters to every guest to give them a personable experience. We highly recommend this tour”

Flight facts.

Our Helicopter
We fly an A-Star Helicopter (AS350B3 American Eurocopter), which offers high performance in hot and high altitudes. This model has become the most popular helicopter platform in use with American governmental agencies and the first ever to land on the summit of Mount Everest.
-
Guest Safety
We take safety seriously. We can fit up to 5 passengers (6 including the pilot). Our pilots are all helicopter flight certified with a minimum of 1500 hours of fly time. They fly anywhere from 400-800 hours per year. A commercial pilot maximum is 1000 hours to put it into perspective.
-
Weight & Balance
Every flight is carefully weighted and balanced. That means, we do need to weigh each passenger before the flight (no cheating and we won’t tell) and then assign people by seat to ensure appropriate weight distribution. Our maximum capacity is five adults.
OUR COMPANY
At Beryl West, adventure isn’t a product; it’s our north star. We fly with a pilot’s precision, an artist’s eye, and an explorer’s heart—because that’s how Beryl would have done it.
Who we are.
Matt learned to fly planes and helicopters from his parents at the early age of 10. He grew up in Tahoe as an acclaimed snowmobile racer and downhill ski instructor. He knows the Sierra Mountains better than anyone!
