Zondag 20 Augustus 2023 is het de negende keer dat de "World Helicopter Day" wordt georganiseerd.
Dit initiatief wordt jaarlijks georganiseerd om de helikopter in een speciaal daglicht te zetten. In alle delen van de wereld wil men manifestaties organiseren rond en met de helikopters.
"World Helicopter Day aims to raise awareness of the contributions that helicopters make to our society and celebrate the diverse range of people that design, fly and support them. This is event which can be hosted by any helicopter operator, helicopter related company, association, organization, museum, pilot(s) or person(s) in any country around the world. The inaugural year for this event was 2015."
