Skyway, China
Anyone know anything about Skyway in Shanghai? I looked but only found their website with a google translation which makes some sense.
Any first hand experience anyone?

Their helicopter work is owned and operated by Aeropower from Australia flying under Skyways AOC doing power line work.
Aeropower sent one of their MD 500E helicopters (VH- SUV) up there to do all types of power line work last year. They hope to send more.
They use Aeropower pilots with a Skyway China fixed-wing pilot to translate and talk to the ATC and chinese linesmen for the line work.
Month on Month off contract.
In January I was in Rockhampton with one of our senior linesman training up 3 chinese liney's to do platform work up in China.
They are the first chinese aerial linesman ever. They went real good didn't need a translator in the end, good linesmen.

I know the owners of the company. Good people with passion for aviation. Not easy as they mortgaged their houses to start up the company.
