RE: Erickson Air-Crane Incorporated, Registration Statement on Form S-3
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Erickson Air-Crane Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 10, 2013. The Registration Statement relates to the proposed offering and sale from time to time of shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) (i) by the Company of up to 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Primary Shares”) and (ii) by certain selling stockholders (the “Selling Stockholders”) of up to 5,602,970 shares of Common Stock (the “Selling Stockholder Shares”).
In connection with this opinion letter, we have examined the Registration Statement and originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such corporate records, documents, and other instruments of the Company and reviewed such questions of law as we have deemed necessary for the purpose of rendering the opinions set forth herein. With respect to such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of the documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to us as certified, facsimile or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. As to questions of fact material to this opinion, we have, to the extent deemed appropriate, relied upon certain representations of certain officers and employees of the Company.
Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:
1. When the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Act, the Primary Shares, when issued and sold by the Company as contemplated by the Registration Statement, and delivered by the Company against receipt of the purchase price therefor, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable; and
2. The Selling Stockholder Shares are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
Erickson Air-Crane, Incorporated

The opinion expressed herein is limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law.
