Sunshine Helicopters Ultimate Kauai Adventure provides excellent visibility with the industry standard “Black Beauty.” This helicopter has customized with forward facing comfortable bench style seats. Sunshine helicopters have skilled pilots that have brought pleasure to over 850,000 contented Hawaiian vacation passengers since 1985. Our helicopters were upgraded in 2008 to ASTAR 350FX. The FX flies faster, is quieter, carries more weight, and more fuel efficient. Heli-Lynx Helicopter Service of Canada provided the conversion from AS350BA to AS350FX and is approved by the Federal Aviation Administration. This conversion increased the capacity of the helicopter providing “first class” seating for our guests. The President of the Sunshine Helicopters, Ross Scott, was quoted saying, “the FX is the most environmentally friendly helicopter we operate with a lower noise footprint and 25% less fuel burn. It raises the bar for green helicopter air touring in Hawaii.” FX Open Seating: Seat assignment determined by weight and balance and the industry standard is six-passengers. FX First Class Seating: With extra arm and leg room passengers enjoy “First Class” seating next to the pilot. Maximum combined weight for two passengers: 400 lbs.
