Showing respect for nature makes the mountain experience even better!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Historical Background<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The first aviation company in Adolfstr\u00f6m was called Svaipaflyg, founded in 1973 by Kjell Johansson together with the film company Forsgren Produktion. The business was based entirely on flying fishing tourists by floatplane to mountain lakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After one particularly windy summer that made seaplane operations difficult, Kjell decided to obtain a helicopter pilot license. He trained with Lapplandsflyg in Ume\u00e5, and in 1977 he carried out the first helicopter flights using a rented piston-engine Bell 47 G2. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 1982, Fj\u00e4llflygarna i Arjeplog AB was founded. The company operated with one helicopter and one seaplane. The helicopter model they eventually chose was the Hughes 500, a powerful and versatile helicopter well suited for the company\u2019s operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seaplane operations ended in 1998, and a second helicopter was purchased instead. Later that autumn, an accident ended Kjell\u2019s career as a pilot. During his hospital stay, he even purchased a new helicopter from his hospital bed \u2014 something the hospital staff said they had never experienced before.\n\nKjell\u2019s son Fredrik Johansson began his aviation career as a helicopter technician, later training as a pilot and joining the company in 2000. Today, he is the Chief Pilot of Fj\u00e4llflygarna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
