Registered to Conair Aviation (Frontier's parent company) 1991 - 2002. The helicopter went to River City Helicopters as N205SF during 2002 - 2008 and is current at the time of uploading with Hillcrest Aircraft (N689H) since 2010.

Built in 1968 and initially imported in 1986. It used to do an annual swap as VH-HHD between 1986 and 1989. Thereafter it stayed put until export as N205XP in 2002. On 11 August 2004 at Leavenworth/WA it was destroyed due to loss of control after the tail rotor hit a tree.

A very early LongRanger built in 1975 and at this time based at Abbotsford/BC (CYXX). In 1995 it was exported as CC-CNR.

Frontier Helicopters bought this Bell Jetranger in 1968. Initially a Bell 206A registered CF-FHL, it was later upgraded to a 206B. In 1997, Frontier (the rotary division of Conair Aviation since 1977) sold the early JetRanger to Western Aerial Applications. The helicopter was registered to them in August 1997 and is current at the time of uploading.

This 1973 build Bell 205 was operated by Conair subsidiary Frontier Helicopters until the division was fully integrated into Conair in 1991. It left Canada in 2001 when Conair closed the rotary wing division. The machine is still current in the USA as N205RH at the time of uploading.

First with Airfast Helicopters as VH-UHG from 1968, this early civil Bell 205 was later N3764U before it was imported by Frontier Helicopters becoming C-GRWK in 1983. It was in their fleet until 1986 and has remained in Canada ever since. It's current with Custom Helicopters at the time of uploading.
