Mining, Industrial & Remote-Site Support

Some infrastructure sits where no crane will ever reach. Somebody still has to put it there.

Why us for this

Why Aviation ONE for remote-site work.

Industrial aviation is repetitive, weather-dependent and unforgiving of shortcuts. Placing a load on a structure the pilot cannot directly see, on a line, in wind, is precise flying — and it is planned against the weight, the line length, the density altitude and the escape route before anyone lifts. It is also where the honest answer is sometimes that today’s conditions are wrong and the lift happens tomorrow.

Industrial clients audit their aviation suppliers, and rightly so. We vet the operator and airframe before the contract rather than after the incident.

Relevant past experience

We have lifted cable drums onto transmission tower footings on hillsides where the access road ended well short of the structure, working to a ground marshal because the load was not visible from the cockpit at the moment of placement.
