Bond Aviation Group

Bond Aviation Group was a British helicopter operator based at Gloucestershire Airport, Staverton.

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.

[1][5] In 2001, Bond Offshore Helicopters was formed at Aberdeen Airport to take advantage of the booming North Sea oil and gas, crew replacement requirement.

In 2013, four helicopter crewmembers were honoured for their role in the rescue of an oil industry vessel in the North Sea that had been struck by a wave during a storm.

[8] Using mainly Eurocopter EC-135 and MBB Bo 105 helicopters, they operated from 17 bases around the UK and had two headquarters, Staverton and Glasgow City Heliport.
