AERONAUTIC SOLUTIONS IS RIDING a wave of new investment in new top-end helicopter facilities in Johannesburg South Africa.

Today Aeronautic Solutions has grown into a helicopter specialist which provides its clients with the latest in world-class support and service at their recently completed facility in Limeroc Business Park to the west of Eagles Creek Aviation Estate. Situated just beyond the edge of the Lanseria CTR, the new facility has already earned full helistop registration and is expected to be registered as a heliport in the near future.

The vastly impressive new facility features full conference facilities that are available to clients for conveniently hosting meetings in a dynamic and exciting aviation environment.

As a focused business, investment Aeronautic Solutions, with their variety of single and multiengine helicopters, endeavour to meet the diverse helicopter requirements of all their clients.

Helicopter Fleet

Pride of the Aeronautic Solutions fleet is an MBB BK-117, a powerful twin-engined medium utilitytransport helicopter ideally suited for the hot and high operations of the South African Highveld. It is best suited for a diverse range of operations, such as aerial crane and sling work, operations in the security sector, and charter, and is exceptional as an air ambulance and search and rescue platform.

The BK-117 makes Aeronautic Solutions the only company in Gauteng to have a full CAT A Performance helicopter for high altitude heavy lift out-of-ground effect operations.

As the backbone of their fleet, Aeronautic Solutions use Airbus AS350/H125 Squirrels which outclass all other single-engine helicopters for performance, versatility, low maintenance, and low acquisition costs while also excelling in hot and high conditions and extreme environments.

The MD-500 gets airborne with an Airbus AS350 Squirrel on the apron.

The iconic McDonnell Douglas MD500E helicopter delivers the highest speed, payload and productivity in its class. With a five-bladed main rotor, the MD 500E offers unparalleled versatility for the broadest range of customerdefined missions.

The Eurocopter EC130 (now Airbus Helicopters H130), is a single-engine light utility helicopter developed from the earlier Eurocopter AS 350 Ecureuil, one of the primary changes from which was the adoption of a passenger and noisefriendly Fenestron anti-torque tail rotor.
