Good to know
- Hobbs time is kept by a meter on the dash of the aircraft and turns anytime the pilot pulls pitch on the main rotor blades.
- If a guest chooses to OPT OUT of a scheduled heli day, the guest will automatically be deducted ONE HOBBS HOUR for that date.
- Most often our Public guests drive 10 minutes to our Keystone Heli base.
