What We Provide
An experienced Aviation Advisor can provide a Confidential Operational Assessment on behalf of companies chartering or contracting any air service provider operating seaplane services to remote or new locations. The Aviation Advisor will review the routes and landing areas and assessment these sites for civil aviation, ICAO and aircraft operational compliance.
Maintaining safety margins and reducing risks while 'getting the job done' requires emphasizing safety in the company’s overall planning, decision-making, and resource allocation. One of the best tools for determining the overall ability of any seaplane operator is an independent operational assessment carried out by experts in the field. An Aviation Advisor dedicates many years of hands-on operational expertise and aviation professionalism toward completing this assignment and thereby helping your company to concentrate on the task at hand: producing oil, laying pipelines, mining minerals, or catering to tourists. Once the assessment has been completed, moreover, an Aviation Advisor can help to develop and implement your company's scope of work to ensure you are getting the realistic level of services that your project requires.
