ABOUT AIRLIFT BASE KINSARVIK – ENW1V
Vetlemoen Heliport was established in 1987 and includes a hangar and a small housing complex for the crews on duty. The hangar can fit 5 AS350/H125 helicopters but is usually serving 2-3 of them. Additionally, an A109E used for Human External Cargo (HEC) operations is based in Kinsarvik.
In Kinsarvik the Airlift Part-145 organization can provide line-maintenance for the AS350/H125 and the A109E, as well as base-maintenance for the AS350/H125.
The maximum permitted D-value is 13. 1m, SAR/POLICE/HOSP exempt. The Super Puma drops by sometimes, on special approval from the authorities. SAR and HEMS operators regularly visit to refuel (AW101/H135/H145).
The heliport uses the Norwegian G-class airspace unicom frequency of 123. 500MHz.
See appendix A for recommended approach and departure routes. The South-Eastern approach/departure is particularly scenic, taking you over the amazing waterfalls of Husedalen valley.
ABOUT AIRLIFT AS
Airlift AS was founded in 1986, and acquired local Kinsarvik helicopter company, Helikopterteneste, in 1999.
As of March 2025, Airlift AS operates the following fleet:
- 18 AS350/H125
- 3 AW169
- 1 A109E
- 1 AS332C
Airlift has bases at Bringeland (Main base), Kinsarvik, Flesland, Hovden, Kjevik, Torp, Gardermoen, Frosta, Tromsø and Hammerfest.
The AS350 is the workhorse of the onshore helicopter market in Norway, and Airlift's onshore operation is focused on Helicopter External Sling-Load Operations (HESLO), commonly known as longline (or utility) operations. The main driving force for onshore helicopter operations in Norway is the energy sector and is mainly focused on the hydroelectric industry. Helicopters are used in all phases of hydroelectric infrastructure construction and maintenance in areas not accessible by roads.
This ranges from flying building materials for concrete formwork, concrete, foundations for powerline towers, assembly of powerline towers, stringing of powerlines, to later support of the same infrastructure. Other uses are photo/filming, powerline inspections, geological survey flights, shipborne expeditions, arctic operations, charter and sightseeing. Kinsarvik is strategically placed by the Hardangervidda plateau, which is also a National Park. There are a lot of cabins in that area, and they use helicopters from Kinsarvik to resupply provisions.
The A109E is used for HEC-operations, primarily installing and changing powerline obstacle marker balls. The nature of this operation means that the A109E is rarely in Kinsarvik, except for line-maintenance.
Airlift's 3 AW169s operate on a contract for the Norwegian Coastal Administration for Marine Pilot Operations in Bergen and Hammerfest, as well as in support of the Police in Northern Norway. The Marine Pilot Operation is a Helicopter Hoist Operation and is flown day or night (NVG) VFR and IFR.
The AS332C is used as a heavy lifter and specializes in global flare-tip change operations for offshore installations.
ABOUT THE INCLUDED HELIPADS
The mountains around Mauranger are well suited to use water run-off from the glacier and is home to a complex infrastructure of power stations and reservoirs. It holds several sites related to a vast network of tunnels for water between the reservoirs, where valves can be opened and closed to steer water where it is needed for power generation. Several of those sites are included in this package. Typical missions are flying personnel and equipment from Mauranger Hydroelectric Power Station to the various sites. Below is a listing of the included sites. See Appendix B for an overview of some of the infrastructure in the area.
Additionally, a helipad near the scenic Trolltunga is included. This was built used for ease of transportation of Statkraft personnel from Ringedalen.

Lukla is a quaint town nestled in the Khumbu Pasang Lhamu rural municipality of the Solukhumbu District, within Province No. 1 of northeastern Nepal. Perched at an elevation of 2,860 meters (9,383 feet) above sea level, it serves as a gateway for adventurers heading to the majestic Himalayas and the iconic Mount Everest.
This charming village is home to a small yet vital airport that connects the region to the outside world. The village itself is dotted with a variety of shops and lodges, offering western-style meals and essential trail supplies to the throngs of tourists and trekkers who pass through. From Lukla, it takes travelers approximately two days to reach Namche Bazaar, a crucial stop for altitude acclimatization before continuing their journey.
The airport in Lukla boasts a single asphalt runway measuring 527 meters (1,729 feet), making it one of the shortest commercial runways globally. In August 2014, the Nepalese government unveiled plans to construct the first tarmac road linking Kathmandu to Lukla, a significant development for the region.
Lukla is served by the Tenzing-Hillary Airport, where, weather permitting, twin-engine Dornier 228s and de Havilland Canada Twin Otters make frequent daylight flights between Lukla and Kathmandu. The airport's short and steep airstrip, combined with often treacherous weather conditions, has earned it the reputation of being the most dangerous airport in the world, with several fatal accidents recorded over the years.
This scenery addon is an improvement in and outside Lukla extending all the way to Thulo Gumela, Tok Tok and Yeti Mountain Home in Kongde. Bring out your Helicopter landing skills as there is a lot of places to challenge yourself along the way.
