Helicopter operations require thorough preparation.
TLC provided destination services in Gabon to its client Heli-Union, whose helicopter, the specific Sikorsky model, arrived from Europe at the Heli-Union hangar at Port-Gentil airport.
TLC’s smooth management of the operation involved:
- Import formalities of the aircraft in Libreville
- Offloading of the aircraft in the port of Libreville, under the supervision of TLC and the client
- Loading of the aircraft on low-bed trailer with transfer to the barge sailing to Port-Gentil
- Upon arrival in Port-Gentil, offloading of the aircraft and transfer on lowbed by our partner Peschaud and transportation to the Heli-Union workshop, located within the Port-Gentil airport area.
The aircraft arrived safely at destination, catching the attention of all during its journey on the ground!
Key Success Factors:
- Flawless co-operation and communication with all parties involved (client, partner, liner agent, …) to minimize risks
- Adequate operation preparation and follow-up
- Staff mobilisation in Libreville and Port Gentil
