HELICOPTER PILOT & OWNER, ÅRE FJELL AB

At home
in the mountains.

I’m Jon Larsson, a commercial helicopter pilot based in Åre, Sweden. My flying has taken me from the Scandinavian mountains to Greenland, with the H125 / AS350 at the heart of my experience.

Through Åre Fjell AB, I take freelance assignments with helicopter operators. My work includes external load and longline flying, heliskiing and passenger transport.

Aerial firefighting with Bambi Bucket is a part of flying I am particularly passionate about. My background combines firefighting missions with H125 / AS350 operations, longline and mountain flying.

I welcome enquiries from operators about the 2027 fire season in Scandinavia and Europe. Relevant documentation, references and logbook extracts are available on request.
