Air Touraine operates five Bell 206 helicopters - JetRanger (4-passenger) and LongRanger (6-passenger) - renowned worldwide for their robustness and versatility. This fleet homogeneity enables us to guarantee the same flight signature: stability, safety and operational flexibility, whether for a first flight or a customized transfer.

Fly further, faster, with complete peace of mind

• Cruising speed: ~ 200-230 km/h - ideal for a quick trip to the Châteaux de la Loire, a business meeting or an airport. 
• Range: up to 600 km - enough to cover almost the whole of Western France non-stop. 
• Proven Rolls Royce engine : a reliable turbine whose simplicity reduces maintenance costs and increases aircraft availability.

Panoramic cabin and premium comfort
Large picture windows offer 180° views of the landscape; VIP Club seating ensures legroom and easy conversation thanks to the on-board intercom system. Luggage compartments accommodate your personal belongings or photo equipment without compromising on comfort.

Safety first
Our maintenance cell rigorously applies manufacturer and EASA guidelines: systematic pre-flight inspections, regular overhaul programs and preventive replacement of key parts. Add to this the high stability of the Bell 206, and you have one of the highest levels of safety in light aviation.

Versatility to meet your every need
From romantic flights to urgent transfers and aerial photography, the Bell 206 can be reconfigured in a matter of minutes:

• removal of doors for photo/video shoots,
• installation of floats or gyrostabilized cameras,
• VIP layout for business flights.

When you climb aboard your Bell 206, you're choosing more than just a means of transport: you're experiencing a privileged moment where technical performance, safety and the pleasure of flight are one and the same.

Our CSR commitments: GREEN FLAG project

Winds of change meet commitment to sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR).

Our sector cannot turn its back on its responsibility for the aviation of tomorrow, and that's why, as a pioneer in green aviation, we're committed to pushing back the boundaries of the airline industry by integrating CSR into every aspect of our business, whether in our helicopters, hot-air balloons or airships.

Our approach to CSR is based on three fundamental pillars:

The Environmental Component :

We are aware of the environmental impact of our flight operations. That's why we invest in cutting-edge technologies to reduce our carbon emissions, minimize our ecological footprint and preserve the fragile ecosystems we fly over. From reducing fuel consumption to adopting sustainable biofuels and protecting the biodiversity of our heliport, every flight is a step towards a cleaner, more environmentally-friendly aviation future.

The Societal Component :

We firmly believe that our success as an airline goes hand in hand with the well-being of the communities we serve. That's why we're committed to supporting local initiatives, promoting diversity and inclusion among our staff, and ensuring some of the highest standards of safety and well-being in the industry. From creating local jobs to promoting sustainable tourism, we work to be a driver of prosperity and social development wherever we operate.

The Economic Component :

Economic sustainability is at the heart of our business model. We are constantly looking for ways to increase operational efficiency, reduce costs and invest in fair and ethical business practices. By working with local partners and fostering inclusive economic growth, we help strengthen regional economies and promote a sustainable financial future for all.
