Tripwire Aviation was founded on a simple truth: real training saves lives. As the aviation division of Tripwire South, an internationally recognized leader in explosive products, services, and training, we specialize in rotary-wing aviation training and mission support for military, law enforcement, and first responders operating in the world’s most demanding environments.
No matter how complex the mission, we bring structure, strategy, and synced-up execution to every moving part—aircrew to ground team.
We eliminate the disconnect between classroom theory and operational execution. If it won’t work in the field, we won’t teach it.
We’re not big on fluff. Our programs are hands-on, high-impact, and designed to push performance—not PowerPoints.
From solo operators to multi-agency missions, we customize training that meets your goals, gear, and grind—without skipping a beat.
We don’t train to check boxes. We train to dominate checklists, exceed expectations, and lead the next evolution.
We believe in pushing limits, not luck. Our instructors bring battlefield brains and industry-best safety protocols to every evolution.
