Profile

As a result of the number of multiple pilot movements that are combined into one flight mission, Mackay Helicopters also has significant experience in movements from vessel to vessel. A substantial portion of this experience has been gained in the challenging IFR operating environment and usually many miles off shore at the Blossom Bank boarding grounds.

Mackay Helicopters area of operation stretches from its bases at Mackay and Gladstone, to the inner and outer anchorages of Mackay/Hay Point and Gladstone, and out to the Hydrographers Passage boarding ground of Blossom Bank, some 120nm from Mackay.

Mackay Helicopters has operated Marine Pilot Transfers in a tropical climate since 1993. We have developed operational efficiencies to ensure we do not delay pick-ups and drop offs of Marine Pilots when a Port is moving multiple ships. We have a well documented and enviable track-record on operational efficiency and delivering 100% service reliability to our Helicopter Marine Pilot Transfers customers (excluding weather and Vessel not suitable for helicopter).
