Myrtle Beach has depended on helicopter lift services for numerous needs, from disaster response to infrastructure development. During natural events like Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, as well as major winter storms, helicopters served a crucial role in evacuations, rescue missions, and emergency assistance. These activities represent only a portion of the many ways helicopters benefit the Myrtle Beach community.

Utility companies such as Santee Cooper have employed helicopters for power line patrol, inspection, and installation, while offshore oil operations gain from helicopter transport of crews and heavy machinery. In construction, helicopters have moved materials onto high rise buildings, including towers along the Myrtle Beach coastline. Beyond industry, helicopters aid public safety through search and rescue missions for the Myrtle Beach Police Department and shark patrol operations with the U.S. Coast Guard.

From major construction projects to emergency response, helicopters consistently demonstrate their value as adaptable, dependable tools for both residents and businesses in Myrtle Beach.
