Niagara Helicopters owner Ruedi Hafen upgraded his heliport in Niagara Falls, ON in the late 1980s and early 1990s to accommodate more bus tour groups visiting from Asia and Europe. A new terminal building, gift shop and restaurant was build, helipads expanded and new tour helicopters added including Bell 412s C-GBHH (1988-1989) and C-GOPP (1990-1993), Bell TwinRanger (1994-1996), five Bell 206L-3s (1993-1996) five early Bell 407s (1996-2015). After Hafen sold the company to Helicopter Transport Services, the 407s were replaced with four Airbus EC130T2s (like C-GTZO pictured here) in 2015. This photo is copyright © Kenneth I.
