A corrective maintenance specialist based in northern France contacts Air Time Critical\u00ae to arrange an urgent shipment of spare parts by helicopter. They describe the challenge:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe need to repair a robot but it is taking longer than expected. We would need a helicopter for an express delivery from Douvrin<\/a> (Nord-Pas-de-Calais<\/em>) to our client\u2019s factory in the Pays de la Loire<\/em> as quickly as possible. We normally dispatch an express taxi but, on this occasion, there is a distance of 450km (280mi) to cover via Paris. This would take at least 6 hours by road, which is far too long for our client.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This is the type of situation that Air Time Critical\u00ae faces on a daily basis.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Is helicopter delivery faster than an express taxi?<\/span><\/h2>\n

In this particular case, the express helicopter delivery we offered our client actually halved the journey time from 6 to 3 hours!<\/p>\n

Helicopter transport is an extremely efficient solution for emergency door-to-door deliveries of industrial equipment over 300 to 600km (180\u2014380mi).<\/p>\n

No traffic jams with helicopters!<\/span><\/h2>\n

Helicopter delivery is also great to avoid road congestion for trickier itineraries:<\/p>\n
