Gold Coast Helicopters a subsidiary of GCH Services LLC began as Gold Coast Aviation in 1996 with one Cessna 172 at Lompoc, CA.  The founder, Mr. William Tresky relocated to Prattville, AL in 1997 and incorporated the fledgling company in Alabama as GCA International, Inc. (GCA) to reflect his vision of a global provider of aviation services.  In 2005 GCA International, Inc. was dissolved and reincorporated under the laws of the State of Arizona as GCH Services LLC.  Gold Coast Helicopters is considered the flight operations side of the company.

From that inauspicious beginning in 1997 the Company was awarded it first contract to provide Air Terminal & Ground Handling Services to the US Air Force in Pago Pago, American Samoa.  For the next several years the company focused on US government contracts providing aviation services and was awarded multiple contract to provide those services to – Luke AFB, AZ; Spangdahlem AB & Ramstein AB, Germany, Andersen AFB, Guam; Davis-Monthan AFB, AZ; Scott AFB, IL, Charleston AFB, SC; Langley AFB, VA; Travis AFB, CA; Wright-Patterson AFB, OH, and expanded our expertise to include Passenger Screening – Andersen AFB, GU & Scott AFB, IL. We subsequently was awarded a contract to provide pilots for US Army OH58’s at Ft Irwin and a Security Guard contract to further diversify our services and capabilities.  .

As our reputation for excellence and cost effective service became known several company’s subcontracted us for avionics and maintenance services.  During this time Gold Coast Helicopters was added with the purchase of two, R22 helicopter and Bell 206B helicopter to begin offering flight training and charters.

Today the parent company –GCH Services LLC encompasses retail store operations, commercial operations, and government operations.  We continue to win and grow our government operation while seeking to expand our commercial services
