Distributor Spotlight – AOG Heliservices

Located on Norman Rogers Airport (CYGK) in Kingston, Ontario, AOG Heliservices has been providing helicopter maintenance services to Canadian operators since 1983. Owner Ken Przontka has spent his entire life in aviation, growing up in an aviation family and starting at AOG directly after graduation from Canadore College’s aircraft maintenance technician program.

AOG’s maintenance capabilities include a large rental and exchange program, and service center approvals from Bell and Schweizer Helicopters. Consistently recognized for its industry-leading overhaul capabilities, maintenance, and repairs, AOG remains confident in their ability to exceed expectations each and every time without compromise. AOG employs a dedicated staff of aviation professionals ranging from aircraft maintenance engineers, part sales, and administration.

“AOG Heliservices has a deep appreciation for the aviation industry and understands that time on the ground is lost revenue for our clients,” Ken wrote in a March 2020 social media post. “Our AMEs recognize the importance of a time sensitive overhaul and labor to ensure deadlines are met and that the integrity of their work is never compromised.”

AOG Heliservices is one of VHA’s oldest distributors, having joined our distributor network in 2010 shortly after our 206B/L/OH-58 tail rotor blades received Transport Canada certification. With 24/7 support in four languages, AOG has sold more VHA main rotor blades than any other distributor in North America (with the exception of Aeronautical Accessories).
