Our Fleet

---

Operations are conducted from our base in Hanmer Springs. 

Our fleet consists of two Heli-Lynx AS350FX2 and one MD520N. The Heli-Lynx AS350FX2 was recently fitted out by Heli-Lynx to upgrade to our requirements. 

All aircraft are fitted with Tracmap GPS systems to provide better navigation performance, particularly in agricultural spraying and topdressing. 

The AS350 FX2 provides a platform for us to deliver high capacity Charter Services with the aircraft being capable of carrying six passengers comfortably. This aircraft is configured for Corporate Charter. The aircraft also brings increased capacity for heavy lifting. The AS350FX2 has a certified external cargo swing and a useful hook load of up to 950 kgs. 

All aircraft are fitted with Tracplus automated GPS flight following systems that are constantly monitored by Company Flight Following Staff.
