Heli-Hire is please to announce the purchase of a brand new Robinson R44 Raven II helicopter. The new Machine has arrived in the country and is currently been assembled.
We are now able to offer Robinson R44 type ratings to our students.
Stay tuned as more news on our R44 comes to hand.
To improve its Sling Rating training and provide students with realistic scenarios, Heli-Hire has purchased a remote controlled grapple.
It is light enough to be used by either of the two R22 training helicopters, and hones student ability to work with a sling load.
This set of skills is very unique with real scenarios played out. We have students lifting fence post to simulated heli logging along with precision placement i.e putting the post into holes in the ground.
This piece of equipment is invaluable for students wishing to get into longline work.
