SAFETY ABOVE ALL: HOW MAUNA LOA HELICOPTERS TOURS PROTECTS OUR SKIES AND COMMUNITY

At Mauna Loa Helicopters, every flight begins with a promise: safety comes first. For us, safety isn’t just a set of rules; it is a culture that shapes everything we do. From our pilots to our ground crew, we are committed to protecting our passengers, our team, and the communities across Hawaii that make our tours possible.
One of the highlights of this commitment is the annual 136 Safety Meeting, a cornerstone event in Hawaii’s air tour industry. This meeting brings together helicopter operators, the FAA, Air Traffic Control, and industry partners to share knowledge, review safety trends, and address the unique challenges of flying in Hawaii. This year, we were proud to host various Hawaii tour operators, the FAA, and the Air Traffic Manager from Kona Tower.
Collaboration That Keeps Everyone Safe
When operators, the FAA, and ATC come together face-to-face, it is more than a meeting; it is an opportunity to strengthen trust, communication, and understanding. These connections help ensure that every flight we operate meets the highest standards of safety and professionalism.
Operators gain updates on regulations, airspace management, and communication best practices, while sharing lessons learned and solutions to challenges such as weather, mountainous terrain, and noise. This collaboration means that the safety measures we implement benefit not just our flights, but the broader Hawaiian community as well.
