In July 2024, Airbus delivered the 1st of four H160 to PHI, marking the beginning of this helicopter type's operation in the US. N672P - shown here departing the VAI Verticon 2025 Exhibition - is the 2nd production H160. After a trial, training and introduction phase of some 300 flight hours, PHI started to operate the H160 commercially for oil giant Shell on March 6, 2025, becoming the first operator worldwide to use the type for offshore missions. PHI's other H160's are registered N673P, N674P and N675P, and all four are / will be based at Houma-Terrebonne Airport.
