EXPLORATION DRILL SUPPORT
In areas where limited road access, steep terrain or forest environments restrict vehicle movement, the helicopter shows its full potential. Exploration drill rigs which are slightly modified to ease assembly and disassembly are relocated between drill site positions with minimum delay. Trained ground personnel have constant communication with the pilot and acts as a link to other personnel on the ground.
AERIAL SUPPORT & CONSTRUCTION
Aerial construction has many advantages over the use of crane services, both in manpower and bottom line costs. Utilizing a helicopter as an aerial crane eliminates the setup and tear down costs of employing a conventional crane. Helicopters enable contractors to work quickly and safely around conveyors, air conditioning units, chillers, towers, etc. The traditional problems of cranes not having enough βboomβ to reach into expansive rooftops are no longer an issue.
WILDLIFE & GAME CONSERVATION
We have extensive experience in the mass capture and darting of all game species by using smaller type helicopters such as the Robinson R44.
We specialise in wildlife relocation via aerial slinging. This method provides minimum stress on the animal and positions the game directly into holding pens, reducing time and manpower considerably.
FIRE FIGHTING AND RESCUE SERVICES
Helicopters by the nature of what they do, can reach the places not accessible by land vehicle or foot, and when it comes to Fire Suppression the aerial advantage can make the difference. The helicopter is also a valuable tool in getting critical information on fires from the air.
