Helicopters In Airline Colors?

Was just wondering if there are CURRENTLY any helicopters in service with airlines, particularly in full colors.

Currently excludes the past, such as BA, SN etc

Also excludes companies that offer scheduled flights with helicopters, such as BIH, Copterline, Helijet etc

I can think of Air Mauritius

Throughout the 50's and early 60's, Sabena operated quite an extensive helicopter network. And lost tons of money on it...

There is one problem with airbus. Though their products are engineering marvels they lack passion, completely.

Not entirely realted but I remember reading about AA doing helicopter shuttles from LGA to JFK. Do they still do it and if so do they operate in AA livery, or are they operated on AA's behalf by some other operator?

How does one go about booking these ferry flights? I have had to transfer between the two airports before and simply taken a cab.

After rereading your previous post, I don't know of any JFK-LGA service. AA does parter with UH from JFK to Manhattan, as does CO from EWR, but not LGA.

There was a thread a couple weeks ago specifically on past helicopter airlines, and this isn't that thread.

I think that Helijet is the other way around the airplane is the same color as the helicopter.
They had their helicopters before they had airplanes.
