Maverick Helicopters, based in Las Vegas, announced plans to buy an additional 10 Eurocopter EC 130B4s for its air-tour operations in Las Vegas; the Grand Canyon; Sedona, Ariz.; and “anywhere else in the U.S. that a customer wants to fly,” Greg Rochna, Maverick president and CEO, told HAI Convention News.

“Although most of our flights are within three hours of Las Vegas, we once flew a couple on a three-day cross-country from Montreal to Las Vegas in one of our EC 130s. It would have taken two days, but they wanted to stay another night in Steamboat Springs,” he said. “The trip cost $39,000.”
