[edit] History
The airline is the helicopter division of Aerovias DAP which was established in 1979 and is wholly owned by the Pivcevic family[1]. Its name DAP is the acronym of its creator, Domingo Andrés Pivcevic, a Punta Arenas businessman[1].

DAP helicopteros fleet comprises:
- 4 Eurocopter AS-355F Twinstar for off-shore petrol ops,
- 5 Eurocopter Bo105CB-4 for EMS operations; three are based at Santiago-Lo Aguirre helipad while one is based at punta Arenas and the remainder in Antarctica.
