SPRING, Texas, May 25, 2025 A longstanding aircraft completion and MRO services leader has announced a major facility expansion in Texas.
Helicopter Services Inc. (HSI) of Spring, Texas, is adding several thousand square feet to its headquarters at David Wayne Hooks Memorial Airport west of Houston.
The facility now totals over 25,000 square feet under roof, significantly increasing HSI’s capacity to serve a growing base of clients with the speed and precision the helicopter industry demands.
“For decades, HSI has been solely focused on the constantly growing needs of the helicopter industry,” says HSI General Manager Mike Crossland. “This expansion is a key step forward in best supporting our many helicopter customers with a broad range of client-focused services.”
The expanded service and completions facility adds dedicated shop areas for sheet metal, composite, avionics and other key services.
Leading entities such as Florida Keys Mosquito Control District, Oklahoma Department of Public Safety and Houston Police Department have chosen HSI for maintenance as well as turn-key services on aircraft. Air medical, airborne public safety agencies and private owners all rely on the company.
“We continue to focus on being a one-stop-shop for operators, improving the efficiencies of turnaround time and supporting their planning for operational effectiveness,” stated HSI’s Robin Crossland.
HSI’s technical team brings decades of hands-on experience installing state-of-the-art avionics and aerial application equipment. They regularly work with trusted brands such as Isolair, Goodrich Hoist, Wescam, Shot Over, SpectroLab, Trakka, and others, and are highly experienced in integrating mission equipment like the MX-10, AEM Geneva Panel, ARS, and Illuminator systems.
In an innovative move, HSI offers its Airbus aircraft acquisition and completions via the GSA marketplace, and continues to be the only company on GSA focused solely on the helicopter industry.
The expansion coincides with HSI’s growing involvement in air medical completions, offering their well-known quality and precision to air medical operators nationwide.
“We know that operators across the U.S. continue to desire additional aircraft completion options,” states Crossland. “Expanding our existing footprint enhances operational efficiency and elevates service levels across both our MRO and completions activities.”
And strengthening its commitment to client service, HSI has added an additional project manager.
Ali Durham joined the company as Project Manager earlier this year, bringing decades of operations background. An Iowa native, she relocated to Texas to be involved with successful companies like HSI.
“When I learned about their expansion plans, I saw a great opportunity to get involved,” states Durham. “Joining the team at HSI has been exciting, especially with the expansion adding much-needed space and flexibility. It's allowing us to better serve our customers with dedicated areas that streamline operations and accommodate specific needs.”
The growth and innovation happening at HSI has Durham energized about the future. “We’re in a strong position to elevate our services and deliver even more value to our clients. The momentum here is real.”
HSI offers high-quality completion and service offerings across airframes from Airbus, Bell, MD Helicopters and Robinson aircraft.
Agencies choosing HSI for their completion and service needs include GCI Communication Inc, Apollo Air Medical, Florida Keys Mosquito Control District, Missouri Department of Conservation, Harris County Sheriff’s Office, City of Austin, New York City DOHMH, Houston Police Department, and others.
HSI is also an authorized partner for numerous top brands, including Airbus, Garmin, HeliTowCart, Genesys Aerosystems, FreeFlight Systems, StartStick, Robinson Helicopter Company, and Avidyne.
