In general, most helicopters can fly for an extended period of time or a significant distance before needing to stop or refuel. Typically, this equates to 2.5 to 5 hours on one tank of gas, which translates to a range of 320 to 640 km. Of course, not all helicopters are capable of this.
TIL the Longest Helicopter Flight was 2,213 Miles and 15 Hours 18 Minutes Long by Bob Ferry in 1966. He Flew Non-stop from Culvert City, California to Daytona Beach, Florida in a Hughes OH-6A Cayuse.
However, there is a wide range of speeds that they fly in. On average, most helicopters fly at speeds between 75 and 150 miles per hour. Military helicopters are known to fly at much higher speeds than 150 miles per hour, with some of them clocking in at around 200 miles per hour.
Other helicopter models include the AW109 Grand New, which has a range of 432 nautical miles and rents for around 3300 USD per hour; the Sikorsky S-76, with a range of 404 nautical miles, rents for 4700 USD per hour; and the Eurocopter AS-365-N3 Dauphin, with a range of 428 nautical miles, which can be rented for ...

Usually we fly around 100 MPH. Helicopters accelerate to cruise speed fairly rapidly. In a no wind situation, typical multi engine medium sized helicopters could takeoff (less then one minute to max cruise A/S) traverse 30NM and land in about 13 minutes.
According to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), helicopters crash at a higher rate than airplanes. The crash rate for general aircraft is 7.28 crashes per 100,000 hours of flight time. For helicopters, that number is 9.84 per 100,000 hours.
