What Are The Key Driving Factors For The Growth Of The Helicopter-Based Transportation Market?

The growth of the helicopter-based transportation market is expected to be boosted by an increase in the utilisation of helicopters for various purposes. These rotorcraft, which are capable of vertical takeoffs and landings and can hover in place, do not possess wings but are equipped with one or two sets of large rotating blades on their tops. They serve a multitude of functions, such as supporting the energy and electricity sectors, facilitating transportation and cargo logistics, conducting search-and-rescue missions and firefighting operations, fulfilling military and government contracts, among others. Their ability to take off and land with ease has also increased their appeal in the transportation sector. A case in point is when Airbus Helicopters, a division of the Dutch commercial aircraft manufacturer Airbus SE, reported in January 2023 that it had received 374 gross orders (net 362) in 2022, marking a significant market rebound. This included the sale of 216 light single-engine helicopters, while deliveries jumped from 338 in 2021 to 344. In conclusion, the helicopter-based transportation market is anticipated to be driven by the escalating use of helicopters across various applications.
