Gippsland Helicopters operate scenic flights using a brand new float equipped passenger Robinson 44 Clipper I – where everyone has a window seat, or a 2 passenger classic Bell 47G5A that gives unrestricted 180 degree panoramic views from its bubble-cabin. Both helicopters can be flown with doors removed for optimal viewing and flying experience, and excellent visibility is available from every seat.

The helicopters can be used for scenic and charter flights, photography and filming, mustering, aerial surveying and spotting, and powerline or pipeline inspections.
