Multi-Mission was the most common helicopter mission across<br />
most Asia-Pacific countries, but there were exceptions. For<br />
example, 50% of the fleet in Thailand and Vietnam were offshore<br />
helicopters. However, in Thailand other missions such as charter<br />
and private/ corporate were evenly distributed, whereas in<br />
Vietnam, there was only one helicopter available for charter.<br />
Malaysia’s Offshore helicopters made up 24% of the country’s<br />
fleet (30 out of 123), with Multi-Mission (22%) and Private/<br />
Corporate (20%) in second and third place. Hong Kong on the<br />
other hand, had a total of nine helicopters for SAR, accounting<br />
for 53% of the region’s fleet, in addition to five Multi-Mission<br />
helicopters, two for Private/Corporate, and one used for Training.<br />
