Helicopter Assisted Transmission Line Construction Exceeds Expectations
‘Rising above expectations’ is the mantra that PLH Group trumpeted in T&D World Magazine in June this year about the exceptional service of their subsidiary Air2. Air2 provides electric utilities with helicopter-assisted construction and maintenance with a fleet of MD 500 helicopters.
These highly trained airborne crews consistently tackle the tough challenges of today’s energy grid, providing specialized services on high voltage transmission lines. In addition, Air2 is well known for its emergency response services assisting electric utility companies to restore power due to hurricanes, tornados, ice storms, fires and other natural disasters.
