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 />
