Helicopter trailer transport

Hi Guys,

looking for any companies in the USA that can transport an aircraft on a truck trailer from WV to Baltimore.

Thanks,

NB

There pretty much aren't any in the US. The guys who do it best are Gooseneck transport out of Calgary Alberta Canada. Just google them, they are the best and they cover the Americas.

There are plenty in the US if you know where to look. I have seen everything from SkyCranes to fleets of Hueys on the road - and it wasn't Gooseneck hauling them either!

What type of helicopter is it? That will assist you greatly in your local search possibilities, including renting a trailer from another operator and hauling it yourself.

Try Jack Kelly 609-965-0722 or cell 609-517-2822. He has a lot of experience transporting helicopters. He also owns a Bell 47. He is in the North East but goes anywhere.

Big Question. What do you have to transport. Is it a brand new B412 or a surplus Huey. Makes a difference. Many folks advocate "Helicopter Transport" but depending on what you have it can be done much simpler and cheaper. Drop some info on us and maybe you will get some suggestions. Lots of the "You need this" type transport is not necessary.......
