Flight operations often proceed in adverse weather conditions at temperature range of -25 up to +45 degrees, severe dust storms, heavy rainfalls, poor equipped landing sites, and high mountains (up to 4000 m) that result in wind shear, turbulence and icing. Unsecure operating conditions mean that fuel is often of low grade, storage conditions of spare parts, tools and equipment intended to be applied for maintenance and repair performing are often undue.

Over the years, PANH Helicopters has carved out an exception operations track record in the most demanding aviation environments in such countries as the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, The Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste, the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, Papua New Guinea and African Republics.PANH Helicopters has been providing world class services in the most remote and hard-to-reach locations. Nowadays PANH Helicopters performs urgent passenger and cargo delivery day and night 24/7. Refugees, food and medical supplies, constructional materials, household equipment are delivered throughout the day and night in any weather conditions to outlands, where UN and ISAF camps are located.

Helicopter Equipment Configuration

The aircraft fleet used for contracts with the UN consists of Mi-8, KA-32, and Mi-26 helicopters. The specified traditional helicopters are operated within 30-50 years; however they are very reliable and low-maintenance. So, for example, the Mi-8 helicopter is equipped with old system of dust protection, however it is unexpendable for blades wear protection at operations in the dusty conditions. Availability of the traditional anti-icing system on all operated helicopters types gives the chance to operate in the icing conditions. This system demonstrates rather reliable performance.

Specific of work within UN contracts consist in necessity for flight operations in the lack of references situation. The basic navigation completion of the above-mentioned helicopters does not always provide safe operations. Therefore at putting up of helicopters for the contract, depending on the region of aerial works, service conditions it is necessary to upgrade them by installation of new more recent flight navigation equipment. We would like to express our gratitude to Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant which helps with the solution of this problem.

Helicopter Maintenance

Maintenance features in operating sites. While performing various types of maintenance on considerable distance from the main base we are faced with certain difficulties. First of all while organizing operating maintenance base we often are confronted with significant deficiency of facilities to place required equipment and tools. I would like to point out that our helicopters are low-maintenance and reliable, and engineering and technical personnel are highly qualified to perform maintenance in dust storm or to replace engine provided that there is no lifting device. In spite of the fact it does not cause operational defects and aviation incidents.
