Panhandle Helicopter is a family owned business. The two primary partners are brothers JR and Ron Hott. JR is a retired U.S. Navy diver and has been flying helicopters since 1999. Ron is a Helicopter CFI (instructor) and an A&P (Airframe and Powerplant) mechanic as well. Ron has been flying helicopters since 1997.

Panhandle Helicopters became available for sale in the late summer of 2008 and was purchased by the partnership of the Hott family. It is our goal to provide our customers with the best service possible. Our primary focus is the safety and enjoyment of everyone.  If you aren’t having fun, we aren’t doing our job.
