The HAI Heli-Expo in Dallas this week has drawn to a close. The huge convention center downtown hosted about 13,000 attendees from 72 countries, 590 exhibitors, and more than 40 helicopters under its roof.

The show featured the latest aircraft, engines, avionics, and other goods and services for rotorcraft and uncrewed aircraft.

Last year the Heli-Expo scheduled to be in New Orleans was cancelled due to COVID. The one before that in Anaheim, California across the street from Disneyland occurred at the end of January, 2020 just as COVID cases were starting to appear in California and other states.

Next year the event will be held in Atlanta at the Georgia World Congress Center, March 6–9, with exhibits open March 7–9.

Below is a gallery of 15 photos, just of the helicopters. On March 12 we will have another gallery with 16 additional images of helicopters. Following that we’ll have more showing the exhibitors, and finally some of the best items that were being given away to the attendees.
