Bond Aviation Group was a British helicopter operator based at Gloucestershire Airport, Staverton. It was purchased by Babcock International in 2014.[1] It incorporated Bond Air Services, now renamed Babcock Mission Critical Services Onshore, and Bond Offshore Helicopters, now renamed Babcock Mission Critical Services Offshore.
Both companies held a United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority Type B Operating Licence, and they were permitted to carry passengers, cargo and mail on aircraft with less than 20 seats.[2] Bond mainly operated Eurocopter aircraft.
In October 2022 Peter Bond announced the return of Bond Helicopters in a joint venture with Gama Aviation, planning to commence operations with five AW139 out of Norwich in 2024 for the Anglo-French Oil and Gas company Perenco.[3]
