Search and Rescue Operations

Remote area assistance with search and rescue operations in the Pilbara and Kimberley

Disaster can strike at any moment and often when it is least expected, putting lives at risk in potentially remote areas. A fast response is especially crucial for search and rescue missions when potential delays could spell disaster.

Our pilots have a wealth of experience with search and rescue operations and we have aircraft available in Kununurra and Karratha. Our state of the art aircraft are fitted with GPS satellite mapping and advanced equipment to ensure missions are completely as safely and efficiently as possible. The majority of our helicopters are fitted with Spidertracks satellite tracking units. The Spider S3 provides real time satellite tracking and emergency alerting back to our head office in Kununurra with position reports every 2 minutes.

We take extreme measures to ensure the operation is successfully carried out without any compromises. Our rescue helicopters are regularly maintained to ensure their safe operation at all times.

We can also provide support helicopters for your tasks and events as part of your risk mitigation strategy.

Search

With more than two decades of experience flying for search and rescue missions across the Kimberley, we understand that every second matters. We offer fast deployment on our aircraft to areas that are normally inaccessible by ground vehicles.

Our team have successfully provided assistance with the search of individuals in distress throughout the Kimberley region. While such missions are often associated with remote areas, search operations are increasingly carried out in urban and suburban areas.

Rescue

The Bell LongRanger aircraft is properly equipped with a stretcher and other equipment including a trauma kit and a defibrillator. The rescue helicopter is flown by our highly experienced pilots and is ready for fast deployment when necessary
