Locally owned and operated by Galen and Carole Pinkney

Far North Helicopters are locally owned and operated by Galen and Carole Pinkney. Having lived in the Far North their whole lives, they know the area and topography like the back of their hands. With 30 years of experience in the agriculture industry and with Pinkney Contracting Ltd, they naturally expanded to offer Far North Helicopters.
