Coast 2 Coast Helicopter Solutions, LLC, aka C2C Helicopter, is a Florida based company founded in 2023 by owner and Chief Pilot, Sean Marston and his fiancé, Jody Knight, Director of Operations and Marketing. Sean had the vision to create this company out of his passion for flying helicopters and cross-country flight, as well as providing instruction to current helicopter pilots or aspiring helicopter pilots for initial, instrument or BFR.
The goals of Coast 2 Coast Helicopter Solutions are to provide contract pilot services to private, corporate, local and state agencies such as EMS or Law Enforcement who need their aircraft repositioned from a manufacturer to completion center or their agency / base of operations. For private owners we offer the same services if you need your aircraft repositioned from state to state or a location within your state of residence. C2C also understands that some private owners or local agencies may be entering a new airframe for the first time, or transitioning from old style steam gauges to glass cockpit. C2C is available to fly with you, as you get the “stick time” in your new machine. C2C is also able to provide instruction in your new aircraft and endorse your log book as instruction received.
We offer these services at very reasonable rates, while receiving these services from a highly experienced pilot. C2C will treat your aircraft as if it is their own, and safety of flight is the top priority.
