Sales, Service, and Support Under One Roof.
Castle is a Robinson Authorized Dealer and Service Center. New and pre-owned aircraft, genuine Robinson parts, and factory-certified maintenance — all from one team. More than 30 years of owning, operating, maintaining, and selling Robinsons stands behind every aircraft that leaves this hangar. From the first phone call to the first overhaul, and everything in between.
We Service What We Sell.
Our team knows the demands and expectations of real operators. Every inspection, every annual, and every AOG call is handled by the same people who helped you select the aircraft — using genuine Robinson parts. The advice you receive before the sale comes from knowing exactly what it takes to keep a Robinson working for years afterward.
Castle is run by Mike Payne — the “Helicopter Mike” on the other end of the phone number above. If you’re ever grounded far from home, the 24/7 line gets answered by someone who knows your aircraft. The job isn’t done until you’re flying again.
