Specialist Roles

There are specialist helicopter roles and tasks, in addition to VIP/guest transfer operations, for which additional specialist training is highly recommended.  Such additional training helps to mitigate the risks associated with conducting these roles, which include:
 

  • Helicopter refuelling

  • Sling loading

  • Cold weather (Arctic/Antarctic)
