Medical Evacuation
We have partnered with the Ministry of Health to provide night medevacs using our Britten Norman twin engine aircraft to pick up patients at airstrips and save numerous lives each year. Our Bell Long Ranger helicopters which can be fitted with two stretchers are capable of extracting patients from areas where there are no airstrips. Both types of MEDEVAC services are available to our corporate clients and the general public.
LYDAR Surveys
Our Cessna 206’s which is most suited for easy configuration and installation of Lydar Surveying equipment has made ASL the premium service provider to both the gold mining and forestry sector when surveys of their concessions are required. As ASL has four Cessna 206’s in its fleet, making one available to a survey client for either a short or long term contract is easily achievable. This service has been approved by the Guyana Civil Aviation Authority. Our flight crew is comprised of experienced pilots who are familiar with the challenging terrain and this is an invaluable asset in the provision of this service. Some of our satisfied clients are GEOSIS, Digital Mapping and the Ministry of Agriculture.
Helicopter Services
Our Bell 206 Long Rangers have a carrying capacity of six persons each and are suitable for groups, television production and tourism. As both Bells can be configured to accommodate two stretchers, they are perfect for MEDIVAC missions from those interior locations that do not have airstrips.
Aerial Photography
Our Cessna 206’s and 172’s can accommodate installation of both video and still cameras for high resolution aerial photography. We have served the Guyana Forestry Commission in this regard for the monitoring and verification process of the Low Carbon Development Strategy.

Our Cessna Caravans are perfect for mobilising large quantities of film crew and equipment and our Bell Long Range Helicopters are capable of accessing remote parts of Guyana’s beautiful interior. Some of our satisfied production crews are BBC, National Geographic, Discovery Channel, RAW TV and Omni Productions.
