The Custom team would like to take time to recognize one of our employees for receiving one of the highest awards bestowed upon Canadian civilians - the RCMP’s Commanding Officer’s Commendation for Bravery. This award is given to individuals for acts of bravery that have an impact on a regional or provincial level.

In the summer of 2019, Nick Cantin, played a crucial role in a high-stakes manhunt that began in British Columbia and found its way to Manitoba. Despite the dangers, Nick flew multiple search missions over the course of the two-week search, aiding the RCMP Emergency Response Team in locating the armed suspects. Nick’s flying skills and knowledge of the local area proved invaluable to the mission. Nick went above and beyond to assist the RCMP and was instrumental in bringing the situation to a safe conclusion.

Nick was presented with the award in November 2024 by Lieutenant Governor Anita R. Neville and Assistant Commanding Officer Scott McMurchy (pictured).

Congratulations Nick!

Custom Helicopters just wrapped up a few days of subbing in for Santa’s sleigh on the Santa Express! 🎅🏼

In partnership with Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak Inc. and Perimeter Aviation, we were happy to help Santa visit 13 MKO communities and 3 personal care homes to deliver cheer to the kids and elders alike! Even Santa’s buddy, Grinch made an appearance 😊

Thank you to Kevin Carlson for the great photos and to everyone who helped make this possible!

Wishing you all a happy holiday season! 🎄
