Helinet Aviation

Alan Purwin co-founded West Coast Helicopters in July 1987. In 1992 and 1993 respectively, West Coast Helicopters was retained for vital organ transport programs for Cedars-Sinai and UCLA Medical Center, providing transportation for their medical teams.

Alan later merged West Coast Helicopters with Helinet Aviation, which he purchased in 1998. In 1999, Helinet became the primary helicopter provider for Children’s Hospital Los Angeles’ patient transport program.

Today, Helinet Aviation continues to serve diverse markets that began with West Coast. Clients now include Fortune 500 executives, celebrities, news stations, and hospitals throughout California. Our business continues to grow because we offer what few aviation companies can: a consistent philosophy of exceeding our customers’ expectations—safely and reliably.

Helinet provides premium helicopter services for multiple markets, with uncompromising dedication and professionalism. Our success is a direct result of our commitment to meeting all of our customers’ needs, no matter how large or small.

With almost 30 years of service, we have acquired the experience, know-how, and industry partners to enable us to provide the best solutions at competitive prices without compromising on customer service.
