Re: Oxford to London helicopter shuttle.

Dear Georgina,

I am sorry that we missed meeting you on your visit to Oxford Airport as we are the un-named helicopter shuttle company that you refer to in your article. We are in fact contracted as the preferred helicopter supplier  to Oxford Airport and OxfordJet which they kindly publicised at the press day. We have been based at Oxford Airport for some 15 years.

Unlike your delayed flight in a Hughes 500, we operate twin engine helicopters on the route and fly direct to Battersea via the Brent Reservoir and thereby avoiding the restrictions and delays of the London heli-routes often suffered by single engine helicopters. We also operate at night and have IF capability...
