'The mail helicopter in Libramont.' Sabena's involvement with helicopters began with an air mail contract and OO-UBA flew the first circuit around eastern Belgium on 21 August 1950.

The Dutch city of Terneuzen, on the south bank of the Scheldt estuary, was briefly served by Sabena from 1 October 1955 - one stop a week between Brussels and Rotterdam. The heliport was in nearby Axel. There was one more flight in 1964 at the request of the Dow Chemical company. By this time, Sabena had sold its S-58 fleet but to help carry out the remaining services two airframes were acquired from Chicago Helicopter Airways. N869 became OO-SHP in November 1964.

Built in 1957, the Bellairus was a luxury version of the Bell 47 with an interior of a similar standard to a high quality car of the period. This example was operated by Sabena in support of Belgian Antarctic surveys between 1957 and 1961. It was operated by Ostermans Aero AB as SE-HBE from 1963-70 and by a private owner as LN-OQG from 1970-72. It became G-AZYB in 1972 and was cancelled as destroyed in 1985 but has been rebuilt for display purposes.
