Profile
Kauai 's Premier Helicopter Tour Service.

Curt and Bonnie Lofstedt, owners and operators of Island Helicopters, are long time residents of Kauai, residing on the Poipu side of Kauai with their three future pilots! Curt flies full time and with over 28,000 hours, he is one of Hawaii's highest flight time helicopter pilots. His experience dates back to high school, receiving his pilots license even before his drivers license. After college in Oregon, Curt flew helicopters in Vietnam, on Alaska's pipeline and then on to Hawaii. Curt has been flying in Hawaii over twenty five years and still "loves every minute of it." Curt personally selects and trains each of Island Helicopters' pilots. Both the Company and all of our pilots are F.A.A. Certified Part 135. All of Island Helicopters' pilots have perfect safety records. The safety, comfort and satisfaction of each customer are our main concerns.

Island Helicopters is one of the oldest helicopter companies in Hawaii, opening our doors on Kauai in 1980. Island Helicopters has been providing deluxe helicopter tours from the Lihue Airport longer than any company in the State of Hawaii - over 25 years. Our company is small by choice, but our standards are the highest. We specialize in providing a personalized tour for the independent traveler, families and groups of any size. We have created a superior tour to capture the true essence of Kauai. All of us are concerned about the ecology of our islands. A helicopter tour is the most ecologically friendly way to show visitors the islands without destroying their natural beauty.

Filming companies call Island Helicopters first because of our years of experience and expertise in the industry. Curt has been flying aerial photography and support for over 28 years in Hawaii and is widely respected throughout the motion picture industry. Other credits to Curt's flying experience include television shows such as Hawaii 5.0, Magnum P.I. and Fantasy Island. The Discovery Channel and ESPN specials as well as numerous documentaries, TV movies, commercials, etc. are a sample of the various projects included in Curt's resume.
