About us
Robinson Helicopter Company was founded in 1973 by Frank Robinson, whose vision was to produce the world’s highest quality, most reliable helicopters in the most efficient, cost effective way possible. Robinson introduced the two-place piston powered R22 in 1979. The affordable, personal-type design quickly made helicopter ownership accessible to a broader audience and changed the face of general aviation. Today, the company’s top sellers are its R44 and R66 helicopters, respectively. To date, Robinson Helicopter Company has produced more than 13,000 helicopters. Robinson puts great emphasis on research and development, continually making improvements and offering new technology. Among its latest introductions are a cargo hook for the R66 and an autopilot designed specifically for helicopters. Robinson manufactures, assembles, inspects, and flight tests all of its helicopters at its Torrance, California factory. To ensure the highest quality and to maximize efficiency, the company manufactures a large percentage of parts in house and employs a highly skilled workforce. Robinson also offers monthly pilot safety and maintenance courses at the factory that attract a global audience.

President and CEO at Robinson Helicopter Company| Delivering Accessible, Efficient, and Safe Crewed and Uncrewed Helicopters
I’m proud of our team, our suppliers and our network of dealers who have continued to grow our share year over year with 13% growth in our Q2 R66 deliveries while the entire turbine helicopter segment declined 7.7% Q2 2024 vs Q2 2023. This represents great progress on our mission to broaden the worldwide use of the R66.

Robinson helicopters play a critical role in optimizing rice production through aerial pollination. By flying low and utilizing the helicopter's downwash to gently distribute pollen, pilots ensure efficient cross-pollination of hybrid rice varieties without damaging the crop. This technique leads to higher yields and more resilient crops. #aviation #heli #pilot #r66 #r44 #r22 #robinsonhelicopter #helicopter #helicoptero #avgeeks #heli #helicopterlife #aviationphotography #aviationlovers #robinson

R44 Clipper II: Enhanced safety for overwater operations. Choose fixed or pop-out floats for added security in demanding environments. Fixed floats are ideal for frequent overwater flights, while pop-out floats optimize aerodynamics for missions with occasional water exposure. #aviation #heli #pilot #r66 #r44 #r22 #robinsonhelicopter #helicopter #helicoptero #avgeeks #heli #helicopterlife #aviationphotography #aviationlovers #robinson

"We have six helicopters now that have more than 20,000 hours on them. They've gone through the complete overhaul process 10 times. Take them apart, put them together, maintain them the way your supposed to, and they will start up and go every day. We have flown 6-8 hours a day on every aircraft, continuously, and they just go and go and go." - Paul Mansfield | Director of Maintenance | Quantum Helicopters #aviation #heli #pilot #r66 #r44 #r22 #robinsonhelicopter #helicopter #helicoptero #avgeeks #heli #helicopterlife #aviationphotography #aviationlovers #robinson
