Austrian Wucher Helicopter GmbH to launch helicopter skiing in Georgian ski resorts

The Civil Aviation Agency of Georgia has granted Austrian company Wucher Helicopter GmbH the right to carry out flights in Georgian mountainous resorts.

Wucher Helicopter GmbH will carry out flights to Gudauri, Mestia and Goderdzi ski resorts from January 15 to April 15 with three AS 350 B3 Ecureuil modern helicopters.

The flights will start operating at Goderdzi (Mountainous Adjara region) ski resort on January 18.

Flights will operate according to visual flight rules. These are a set of regulations under which a pilot operates an aircraft in weather conditions clear enough to allow the pilot to see the direction of the aircraft.

Wucher Helicopter GmbH is not the first foreign helicopter company to launch flights to Georgian mountainous resorts.  German HTM Helicopter Travel Munich GmbH have operated flights since January 2018.
