What is a Civil Helicopter?
Civil Helicopters are also known as business aviation and are designed to fly safely in all situations at minimum cost. These helicopters are majorly used for lifting people, and cargo, and used for aerial surveillance. These aircraft are also used for public and commercial purposes such as search and rescue, medical emergencies, law enforcement duties, transportation in remote areas, or air firefighting support.
Here are some of the driving factors that are increasing opportunities for the Civil Helicopter market growth:
-
Increasing application in the agriculture sector:
The growing application of civil helicopters in agriculture is majorly driving market growth. The use of helicopters in this industry allows farmers to reach difficult areas such as mountainous and hilly terrain. In addition, farmers are also using them for carrying seeds and other materials in large fields with less time without having a dependency on dirt roads.
-
Growing usage of civil helicopters for hydropower construction:
Civil helicopters are majorly used for plant inspection & maintenance in order to transport materials like concrete or rocks from suppliers and to support the construction of dam foundations. Due to rapid economic development in emerging countries, the demand for civil helicopters is expected to surge in the coming years.
-
Advent of new technology in Civil Helicopter:
The advent of new technologies in civil helicopters such as communication and navigation, surveillance, and threat awareness are flourishing the market growth. The emergence of new technologies enables safer and more efficient operations. In addition, surveillance products provide information to pilots with the help of sensor detection of dynamic threats such as surrounding traffic, weather, and near-proximity obstacles. The ongoing invention by market players will provide lucrative opportunities for the civil helicopter market growth. For example, in April 2023, Bell Textron Inc. announced that the Bell 407GXi 3-axis autopilot received certification from the United Kingdom’s Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). This will provide several features, including a stability augmentation system and envelope protection that prevents over and under-speeding.
Conclusion:
Significant growth in the procurement of civil helicopters in various sectors such as agriculture, construction, and others will fuel the growth of the market. Moreover, ongoing R&D activities and the emergence of new technologies are expected to provide an opportunity for operators to help increase their portfolio of civil helicopters.
