We have available a selection of helicopters depending on your requirements and budget. Starting with the small 3 bladed Hughes 300 or the 2 bladed Robinson R22 that
can take 1 photographer. These two helicopter types are ideal for small
photography jobs that are within 10 miles of the Maroochydore Airfield.
If you need to go further or require a larger helicopter then the 4 seater Robinson R44 or the 6 seater
'Squirrel' jet helicopter is the ideal stable platform for professional
photography and filming. |

| Industrial and commercial lifting by helicopter | |||||||||
|
Helicopters provide an environmentally friendly way of transporting your equipment quickly and efficiently onto the work site. The Squirrel helicopter can lift up to 650kg per lift. If a bigger lifting capacity is required then we can arrange it. We are able to use short or long lines of more than 100 feet. For lifting in populated areas there can be a lot of leg work to do prior
to commencing the job. Permission is usually required from the Civil Aviation
Safety Authority, the local Council and Police need to be notified and
sometimes tenants under the sling load flight path may need to be evacuated. Contact us and we can advise you on the best aircraft, method and route.
All of our flying is prepared and accomplished in the safest possible
way. |
|||||||||
| Aerial Survey | |||||||||
 The
helicopter is the perfect survey platform. Whether it be for pipelines,
gas lines , power lines, phone lines, property, traffic, crowd control or
anything else that needs to be surveyed from the air. We can operate from
low level or up to 10,000 feet. Both our Squirrel and Bell47 are night rated with data card GPS displays
so we can be very accurate with where we take you.
If you want to combine the survey with some photography that can also
be arranged. |

| Fire Fighting | |||||||||
 Australia
is a country that is designed to burn. This is good for the environment
but not good for populated areas.Becker Helicopters operates AS350D Squirrel 'Firebird 469' with a Bambi bucket and a sacs-a-foam system. We have short line (20’), medium line (75'), long line (100’) and sling operations available. For more info on Fire fighting - http://www.bushfire.nsw.gov.au/ |

and rescue. If the elements are getting to you and you need some support
fast, give us a call. |
