IF WE CAN’T DO IT, NO ONE CAN.
For 60 years, commercial and military customers have been choosing Columbia to safely and successfully fly the most difficult heavy-lift jobs on the planet.
HEAVY-LIFT AUTHORITY
We harness the power of Chinook helicopters to carry as much as 26,000 lbs of whatever our commercial, military and government customers need to accomplish construction, forestry and stream work, disaster relief, logging, firefighting, and oil and gas-related projects and missions.
Lift Services
Columbia is the world’s only commercial operator of the Columbia Model 234 Chinook and Columbia Model 107-II Vertol heavy lift helicopters. These high-performing, hard-working aircraft are the commercial models of the highly regarded CH-47 Chinook and CH-46 Sea Knight.
Defense Services
Whether we are installing cement barriers to safeguard U.S. troops in Afghanistan from Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) — or helping an international customer field and operate a fleet of heavy-lift aircraft — Columbia’s commitment to customer success is clear.
