Delivery, ferry and post-maintenance flight support
Helitrax SLU provides experienced helicopter pilots to support MROs and maintenance facilities with delivery flights, ferry operations and post-maintenance functional check flights. Our support draws on a trusted professional network of pilots with whom we maintain an established working relationship.
Helitrax SLU is not a recruitment agency. We do not source unknown pilots at short notice. Instead, we operate with a known, proven group of professionals who understand maintenance-release constraints, OEM guidance and the expectations of both MROs and end customers.
Services for MROs
Delivery and ferry flights
Helitrax SLU can provide pilots to deliver helicopters from maintenance facilities to operators or customers, or to reposition aircraft between bases, storage locations and onward modification sites.
Post-maintenance functional check flights
Where post-maintenance flights are required, Helitrax SLU can support MROs with pilots who are familiar with functional check profiles and the need for clear communication between the cockpit and engineering teams.
Support for customer handovers
Pilots can assist with practical aspects of customer handover, demonstration flights and supporting acceptance where this is helpful to the MRO and end operator.
Longer-range repositioning
Where aircraft need to be moved over longer distances, Helitrax can plan and execute multi-sector ferry flights, including route planning, weather assessment and operational support as required.
