WIRE PULLING

HAI has the capability and equipment to pull wire/sockline with a side puller or counterweight, in order to work in between existing power lines.

CONCRETE

Each year HAI moves hundreds of yards of concrete. Whether you’re repairing a flume or pouring into an elevated form, we have the experience to meet your requirements. Our concrete buckets are specially designed for helicopter use and have various capacities.

ROCK/DIRT - SHORELINE REHABILITATION

HAI has designed and developed a system to move large volumes of dirt or rock in a fast and efficient way. Our custom buckets haul one yard at a time and are easily loaded by a loader and dumped by helicopter.

SEEDING & FERTILIZING

HAI has experience in both fertilizing and seeding and has worked with state agencies in algae control in lakes and reservoirs, as well as reseeding after forest fires.

FIREFIGHTING

HAI is committed to the firefighting effort with United States Forest Service, CALFIRE, Oregon Department of Forestry and Washington State DWR. We offer a variety of aircraft/support equipment.

HIGH ALTITUDE WORK

Over the years, HAI has been involved with numerous projects at altitudes ranging from 9000 – 12,000 feet during the summer months. HAI pilots have the experience and knowledge to work in mountainous terrain at high altitudes. During the winter, aircraft are utilized for snow surveys.
