Airborne geophysical surveyor Sander Geophysics has added a Twin Otter Survey Aircraft to its team, bringing its fleet to 16 aircrafts.
The de Havilland DHC-6 300 Twin Otter Survey aircraft will be beneficial for survey work in harsh environments such as Arctic regions and offshore.
The second-hand aircraft has a colourful history having been used by both the Geological Survey of Finland and the British Geological Survey.
It is equipped with a frequency-domain electromagnetic system, a stinger mounted magnetometer, and a radiometric system which the company calls a “3-in-1” system.
The aircraft has been used in Europe and Africa to produce high-resolution geophysical data.
Sander, which also does surveys for petroleum exploration and environmental mapping, has modified 12 of its aircrafts to include its airborne gravity system, AIRGrav.
In addition to the 3-in-1 system, the Twin Otter is also renowned for its turbine engines, fixed landing gear, short take off and landing capabilities and high rate of climb/ descent.
