Important notice!
Make sure that the company you choose has a valid approval issued by the Transport Agency.

Click here for more info If you are going for a taxi- or a sightseeing flight, make sure that the company you choose has a valid JAR-OPS 3 approval issued by the Swedish Transport Agency. The company will also need an Operating License (OL) if the flight is going to be other than local. The authority has no public lists with approved JAR-OPS 3 operators, but they have two lists over companies with valid OLs (click here and here).

Aerial works
Pure aerial works companies do not need the approvals mentioned above - they can operate with a national aerial work permit (LFS 2007:49). However, the most JAR-OPS 3 operators have an aerial work section included in their approvals. There are no public lists with all these operators, but we have them listed here. Call the Transport Agency (+46 771 503 503) to verify their validity.

Lapplandsflyg (retired)

This page was last modified on 29 May 2012 | click to edit

Lapplandsflyg was founded by the legendary pilot Bertil Johansson in Porjus in the early-50s. It was the second helicopter company in Sweden after Ostermans Aero AB. The company has operated ambulance helicopters in Norrbotten, Västerbotten, Stockholm, Gothenburg, Västervik and Sälen throughout the years. It has also assisted the Swedish National Police in their operations. The company moved to its newly built main base at Umeå Airport in 1965.

Lapplandsflyg Lap-Air AB was the oldest still active helicopter company in Sweden. It operated a fleet of Bell helicopters in the Swedish mountain world. The main base was located at Umeå Airport, and the company's two field bases are located in Kvikkjokk and Hemavan. The company was mainly focused in tourism, but did also offer reindeer mustering, power line inspections and various aerial works.

The company offered shuttle traffic between Kvikkjokk, Staloluokta and Ritsem.

Lapplandsflyg announced its retirement in April 2012. The operations was terminated in the summer of 2012. At the time of its retirement Lapplandsflyg operated five helicopters - three Jet Rangers and two Long Rangers.

The Kvikkjokk base was acquired by Arctic Air in 2012.
