HeliAir Sweden is due to take delivery of a Cineflex MSII multi-sensor camera, which it says will raise the quality of its infrared inspections for power line customers.

Euroheli is acquiring two further helicopters as it caters for expanding air taxi demand throughout Germany. "We are comparing the merits of a JetRanger 206 with the AS350 and AS355," says owner and md Harald Becker. "We carried 11,000 passengers last year and the fleet expansion will help maintain and improve our strong nationwide service."

Castle Air Charters has invested in a new high definition HD Cineflex camera as UK demand for aerial photography booms. Keith Thompson, chief pilot, said Castle Air, based in Trebrown in Cornwall, had been commissioned to do work for the third in the BBC Coast television series. Castle Air filmed the initial Coast programme and the follow-up.
