Torrance, CA – August 13, 2024 – Robinson Helicopter Company (RHC), the world’s leading manufacturer of civil helicopters shares a new ‘Climb Higher’ series featuring one of America’s premier law enforcement agencies, the Polk County Sheriff’s Office (PCSO) in Polk County Florida. In these videos, PCSO highlights the pivotal role the Robinson R66 plays in their fleet, emphasizing the aircraft’s ability to modernize operations, reduce costs, and expand aerial coverage, enhancing public safety for their community covering 2,000 square miles.
Designed specifically for the demanding needs of law enforcement and public safety, the Robinson offers unparalleled technology, performance, safety, and cost-effectiveness. In this four-video series, PSCO shows how their fleet of Robinson R66s equipped straight from the factory with state-of-the-art technology, including advanced cameras, tactical radios, and night vision compatibility, empowers their officers to respond swiftly and effectively to a wide range of challenges.
“Because of the technology in the R66, we can be proactive. We can spend more time preventing problems from happening than just chasing problems after they occur,” said Polk County Sheriff, Grady Judd. “We chose Robinson to give the best service to the people of Polk County. The R66 does everything we need to get the job done.”
In 2019, the Polk County Sheriff’s Office was faced with an aging fleet and escalating costs. The department transitioned to Robinson helicopters, experiencing a dramatic reduction in operating and maintenance expenses, more than 50 percent. These cost savings, coupled with increased flight hours and mission capabilities, have significantly enhanced the department’s ability to protect and serve its community.
“Predictable and reliable maintenance schedules make Robinson a great choice for public safety organizations that must stay operable. With scheduled inspections at 100-hour and 12-month intervals only, organizations can provide overwatch without consistent interruptions, said David Smith, president, and CEO of Robinson Helicopter. “Additionally, with the most competitive operating costs in the industry, our helicopters offer exceptional value, reliability, and versatility, making them the preferred choice for departments from Florida all the way to Brazil.”
The “Climb Higher" series highlights how customers and operators worldwide leverage Robinson helicopters' unique capabilities to accomplish a wide range of tough missions and demonstrates the aircraft's indispensable role in delivering unparalleled technology, safety, and operational efficiency.
