Driving over the Faloma bridge and along Azumba Mbadiwe today saw the Caverton heliport looking as empty as ever with just a couple of cars, obviously belonging to their office staff. Then I was struck by the fact that the helipad is only about 2 metres above the water level, which doesn't leave much room for attempting a fly-away if they suffer a single engine failure just after they've rotated on take off. The Agusta 109 may have a decent helipad performance (provided they only want to carry a few passengers) but how can they hope to start a shuttle service using a 365N from that pad and safely offer any decent payload? Are they looking at bigger more powerful helicopters before starting the shuttle service which they've been advertising on their website for about 2 years now? If they have a helicopter ditch after take off I saw lots of lifebuoys on the railings but no sign of any kind of rescue boat. Their staff no longer seem to sit under the expensive plasma TV at Port Harcourt airport arrivals hall where their shuttle also hasn't started despite their advertising (maybe because the new road will be open very soon and there's no sign of a hangar at Port Harcourt. Maybe their VI heliport will soon be as abandoned as the arrival hall at PH? Anyone heard what they're up to lately?
