The Northeast corridor, and especially Manhattan, is the busiest helicopter environment in the world. In December 2010, Helo Holdings Inc. opened the first new commercial heliport in more than 30 years – aimed squarely at the turbine helicopter community. The 7.26 acre “Helicopter-Only†FBO, is located in Kearny, New Jersey at 165 Western Avenue (just one half mile from exit 15E off of the New Jersey Turnpike) and is just 2 minutes flying time from Manhattan. It offers 28,000 sq. ft. of hangar space, 10,000 sq. ft. of lease-able hangar and administrative offices, ample landing and parking (up to 12 outdoor helicopter parking spaces), full Maintenance services, a pilot friendly amenities building and a 24,000 gallon fuel facility with two “hot†refueling pads. All within 2 minutes flying time of Manhattan.
Benefits:Â Time, Money & Convenience
The barriers to developing a Helicopter FBO traditionally have been obtaining the necessary “special use†zoning and government approvals. Helo Holdings Inc. has overcome these hurdles, recently receiving both its “Certificate of Occupancy†from the Town of Kearny and its Certificate of License from the New Jersey Department of Transportation.
Metro New York helicopter operators and pilots will enjoy significant fuel and ferry cost savings by using the HHI facility. Itinerant helicopter operators from points outside the New York area will find an amenity rich heliport to wait for their customers, and very competitive fuel prices in a facility conveniently placed to Manhattan.
Helo Holdings Inc’s Operating Partner, the Analar Corporation, is an anchor tenant
