Our company fosters a culture of safety in the workplace and takes great pride in our team of experienced flight crew, maintenance staff and ground personnel.  At Northern X-treme Helicopters, we believe that safety is the most important aspect of our work and we take a proactive approach.  Prior to work start, all staff participates in daily tail boards to help protect against potential injuries or accidents.  We end each working day with a closing tail board to discuss areas of concern to ensure we do our best ALWAYS.

We utilize SMS programs as well as guidelines from the FAA and HAI (Helicopter Association International) to create an effective safety program that fits the needs of our company and is functional for all employees.
