About Airborne Aviation Inc.
Airborne Aviation Inc., doing business as Airborne Aviation Hawaii, operates as a woman-owned and minority-owned small business providing on-call helicopter flight services to the Department of the Interior as a prime contractor on a $9 million multiple-award Total Small Business set-aside Indefinite Delivery Contract. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Kilauea, Hawaii, competing primarily under set-aside vehicles and holding all 24 recent awards as prime positions with no subcontract footprint.
Airborne Aviation's capability portfolio centers exclusively on helicopter flight operations supporting federal scientific research, environmental monitoring, and natural resource management across the Hawaiian islands. Work spans hydrologic gaging station maintenance, aerial surveys, equipment transportation, and post-fire rehabilitation operations. Representative prime work includes a $95,700 delivery order from Fish and Wildlife Service Region 1 (April 2026) for burned area rehabilitation at the Hawaii-Oahu National Wildlife Refuge Complex, a $30,025 order from the USGS Pacific Islands Water Science Center (December 2025) for hydrologic research support, and a $37,750 order from USGS Hawaii Volcano Observatory (April 2026) for volcano observatory operations support.
Customer concentration is heavily skewed toward the Department of the Interior's Interior Business Center, which anchors $47.2 million of the $47.5 million combined potential value across three awards — the parent $9 million IDIQ and predecessor vehicles. The remaining 21 awards split among DOI sub-agencies: the USGS Pacific Islands Water Science Center (9 awards, $146 thousand), USGS Alaska Science Center (3 awards, $31 thousand), Hawaii Volcano Observatory (2 awards, $39 thousand), and Fish and Wildlife Service Region 1 (2 awards, $111 thousand). While the Interior Business Center dominates potential value, the Pacific Islands Water Science Center drives award volume, reflecting task-order issuance patterns against the IDIQ.
Airborne Aviation holds a single primary vehicle — the $9 million Hawaii Helicopter On-Call Contractor Provided Flight Services IDIQ awarded March 1, 2022, with completion February 28, 2027 — which anchors 13 of the 24 awards and $302 thousand in combined potential value. The company also previously operated under a DOI Alaska On Call Helicopter Flight Services contract (2017-2021), which generated 9 delivery orders and $51 thousand in combined value. Activity has remained modest and stable — three awards in 2024, four in 2025, and two in 2026 year-to-date — with only two awards (combined potential value $133 thousand) reaching ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months. The $9 million IDIQ's February 2027 completion date represents the near-term recompete exposure driving the vendor's future work pipeline.
