From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list based on CIA World Factbook,[1] Flightglobal, Vertical Magazine and Ainonline along with the civil and military helicopter fleet.

This entry gives the total number of heliports with hard-surface runways, helipads, or landing areas that support routine sustained helicopter operations exclusively and have support facilities including one or more of the following facilities: lighting, fuel, passenger handling, or maintenance. It includes former airports used exclusively for helicopter operations but excludes heliports limited to day operations and natural clearings that could support helicopter landings and takeoffs.
