ForestryPDG has a division that specialises in support to the forestry industry. Gone are the days when "crop spraying" was undertaken by eye and experience. Environmental and economic pressures have meant that helicopter companies have had to adapt to survive. PDG Helicopters has always been at the forefront of development in this highly technical operation, both in the UK and Ireland. An example of increasing complexity and efficiency is the use of satellite navigation to aid in the spreading of granular fertiliser with great precision. Ground and airborne computers are used to control spreading and record the results on a post flight map. Another example is the use of hydraulic grabs, controlled by the pilot to remove timber from inaccessible places during timber extraction.Examples of helicopter support for the forestry industry are:
