“We proudly join with the helicopter industry to honor and celebrate our global family of flight on World Helicopter Day,” said Quentin Koch, President & General Manager of Blue Hawaiian Helicopters. “With all eyes on the industry during this celebration, we wanted to lend our support to a local organization, and are honored to support Make-A-Wish® Hawaii with a portion of our sales proceeds from the day.”
Make-A-Wish® Hawaii is unique chapter of the national charity focused on granting the wishes of local keiki statewide, while also hosting visiting wish families.

World Helicopter Day, celebrated on the third Sunday of August each year, aims to raise awareness about the contributions that helicopters make to society and to celebrate the diverse range of people that design, fly, and support them. Regarded as one of the world’s greatest engineering innovations, helicopters assist with rescues, disaster relief, transportation, firefighting, medical transfers, power line maintenance, tourism, agriculture, and more. The industry employs more than 500,000 people and there are an estimated 56,200 helicopters worldwide.
