Heli Source Ltd. Forestry Support
The helicopter is one of the most utilized tools in forestry operations. We deliver a range of services ideal for the forestry industry including fire suppression, aerial seeding & fertilizing, logging support, heli-torching and more to suit your particular needs.
Fire Suppression
We provide expertise in mountain flying and vertical reference (longline) operations in a variety of challenging environments. We are equipped with delivery systems as well as GPS navigation to ensure pinpoint accuracy when delivering water, materials and crew during forest fires. After a fire, burned areas are at greater risk of flooding, landslides and topsoil erosion. Reclamation procedures mitigate problems and preserve a healthy environment.
Logging Support
Helicopter logging is the best option for harvesting timber. Helicopter logging is often utilized where there are high-value trees in areas that are not accessible by road due to difficult terrain or other factors. Helicopters reduce the level of infrastructure, helps to reduce the environmental impact of logging, and increases productivity in remote areas.

Aerial spray support helps reduce a variety of pests that threaten the targeted areas. We strive to provide environmentally friendly, biodegradable products to safely eradicate the pest. Deploying a variety of techniques and approaches for effective pest control and mitigation is a top priority.
