Equipment

• The spray equipment that is used on Squirrel helicopter was especially designed and developed by Mark.
• The system is type approved by the Civil Aviation Authority.
• The Squirrel tank is made from stainless steel and has a 1000litre capacity.
• Ease of cleaning and low maintenance costs were some of the driving principles of using stainless.
• The system utilises an "electric over air" system driven by a 4.5 hp Honda motor.

An electronic digital pressure readout is linked to the GPS unit for accurate spray delivery.

Nozzle types are a three headed Triplex system that allows ease of changing from one size to another, depending on product being used.

Spray drift from the use of these nozzles is almost completely negated.

The spray booms are designed to be only 80% of the total rotor diameter to eliminate spray swirl.

Lakeview Helicopters can undertake all types of aerial spraying.
