Heli-Linth AG

Heli-Linth AG is a helicopter company based in Mollis, Switzerland, serving the Glarus region and nearby areas. It operates mainly from the Mollis airfield and provides a variety of helicopter services. The company works closely with farms, mountain huts, forestry operations, local authorities, and cable car operators. It also offers sightseeing flights and specialized pilot training.

The company has been flying transport missions to alpine farms and remote mountain regions for many years. During the summer months, it organizes transport flights on set days: Wednesdays serve the regions of Glarus, Schwyz, Uri, upper Walensee, and Sarganserland, while Thursdays focus on Alpstein and Appenzell. This schedule runs from May 1 to October 31 each year.

Material transport is an important part of Heli-Linth’s operations. The company handles loads up to 1200 kilograms. It delivers supplies to Swiss Alpine Club huts and mountain restaurants. They can transport construction materials like concrete, sand, and gravel in aluminium buckets, as well as small excavators and building containers.

Heli-Linth also specializes in helicopter timber transport using a double hook. They perform special tree felling near sensitive areas such as power lines, roads, railways, and residential buildings. Additionally, the company provides avalanche blasting services for authorities and cable car operators, placing charges accurately to control snow build-up.

Animal rescue work is carried out during the summer in alpine regions. Operations follow animal protection laws and involve veterinary consultation when needed. Sightseeing flights are offered for up to five passengers, and gift vouchers are available through the website.

The company offers targeted pilot training but does not provide standard helicopter license courses like PPL(H), CPL(H), or ATPL(H). Training options include mountain landing training, H125 type rating, night flying, and occasional external load training with HESLO certification. The H125 helicopter type is notable in their training fleet.

Heli-Linth serves primarily within the regions of Glarus, Schwyz, Uri, Walensee, Sarganserland, Alpstein, and Appenzell. The company’s website is active and provides detailed information about its services and training programs.
