We Fly These Helicopters. We Maintain Them. We Sell Them.
Castle is built on more than thirty years of owning, operating, maintaining, and selling Robinson helicopters. We fly these aircraft, keep them in our own hangar, and sell them to people who expect straight answers. One team, from the first phone call to overhaul.
We Service What We Sell.
Castle is a Robinson Authorized Dealer & Service Center for the full Robinson product line. The people who help you choose a helicopter are the same people who keep it flying afterward: every inspection, every annual, every AOG call. The advice you get before the sale comes from what it takes to keep a Robinson working years after it.
Castle is run by Mike Payne — the “Helicopter Mike” on the other end of the phone number above. We own and operate Robinsons ourselves, so we know what they cost to run, how they behave, and what they need. And 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.
