Helicopter & Aerial Filming

John Bassi has worked with numerous local and overseas film companies, including film crews from National Geographic, Discovery and the BBC to mention a few. Bassair is able to provide a full service areal filming unit for film productions and documentaries.

Medium range film work is kept cost effective by using either the R44 or Bell Jet Ranger, while we have at our disposal larger machines such as the AS350 Squirrel, BH206Long Ranger and Bell 407for heavier camera equipment and crew. All Ciniflex and gyro stabilised camera equipment can be provided.

BASSAIR SPECIALIZES IN WILDLIFE DOCUMENTARIES, COMBINING A POTENT MIX OF JOHN BASSI’S EXPERT FLYING SKILLS, YEARS OF EXPERIENCE, LOCATION CONTACTS AND EXTENSIVE KNOWLEDGE OF ANIMALS IN THEIR NATURAL HABITAT.

Bassair also provides a photographic platform to professional photographers commissioned to take aerial images. Our experienced pilots understand the importance of lighting, positioning and stability, and the need to be completely adaptable while maintaining a high level of safety. Bassair’s clients include both local and international photographers, shooting a diverse range of materials.
