AERIAL WORK 30
Héli-Béarn to Operate Multi-Mission Kodiak 100 for Paratroop Dropping Tests

Héli-Béarn has been contracted by France’s defence procurement agency to perform paratroop drops that will test and validate parachute systems for the French armed forces. Based at Pau-Pyrenees airport, Héli-Béarn is the first operator in France of Daher’s Kodiak 100 multi-mission aircraft.
The contract was awarded by the aeronautical techniques expert centre of France’s General Directorate of Armament (DGA-AT) and covers the rental of a Héli-Béarn Kodiak 100 for a period of five years at the rate of 200 flight hours annually.
“The contract acknowledges the Kodiak 100’s multi-mission efficiency and performance, as well as the quality of HéliBéarn’s flight operations,” said Nicolas Chabbert, Senior Vice President of Daher’s Aircraft Division. “It also represents another DGA recognition of Daher’s products and services. We have performed operational support maintenance for the DGA’s TBM 700 aircraft for nearly 30 years, along with avionics modernisation on its helicopters. More recently, the DGA ordered a fleet of four new TBM 940s for its support and training missions – with all of these aircraft now delivered.”
Héli-Béarn operates two Kodiak 100s, both of which entered service with the company earlier this year in southwestern France. One of them is equipped for the deployment of paratroopers, and has already logged nearly 200 flight hours performing some 600 rotations for civilian skydiving centres in France.
The Héli-Béarn Kodiak 100 also has welcomed students from the French military’s School of Airborne Troops (ETAP), which trains paratroopers for the country’s armed forces and its Gendarmerie national police force.
Héli-Béarn says it performs transportation and aerial work with both fixed-wing airplanes and helicopters, while also providing aviation maintenance, training and consulting services.
