Alan Bailey
Chief Executive Officer
As the founder of Heliwest in 1992, I bring over 40 years of aviation expertise in business management, aircraft engineering, and operations for both fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft, having grown the company from a single Bell 206 helicopter to a industry leading organisation. My proudest achievement is building Heliwest into a trusted name known for safe, quality aviation solutions while fostering a values-based culture of excellence.  
 
Outside of work, I unwind by indulging my lifelong passion for flying, often taking to the skies at every opportunity. I’m deeply passionate about mentoring the next generation of aviators, including my two teenage sons, and sharing adventures with close friends, driven by a love for action, adventure, adrenalin and fine wine.
