GP Airborne Services

GP Airborne Services (GPAS) has the ambition of becoming the leader in providing cost-effective UAV services, products and solutions. We are singularly focused on achieving the highest standard of work whilst not compromising on safety. While the obvious applications for UAV’s (mining, agriculture, construction, airborne photography etc.) have already benefited from the major cost savings and improvements in operational efficiency, the sky is literally no longer the limit. Drones are changing our perspective on the world. There is no question that the UAV industry is in a massive growth phase and this growth is forecasted to continue for a number of years to come. Improvements in technology, driven by billions of dollars of R&D investment into defence and government projects are making their way into commercial and consumer drones rapidly enormously improving the capabilities of the airborne platform. It’s forecast there be 29 million consumer drone shipments and 800,000 commercial drone shipments in 2021, that’s less than 5 years away. The technology is fast approaching complete commercial suitability, fully compliant safety and regulatory standards-based design, platform and payload interchangeability, automated safety modes, enhanced intelligent piloting models and full autonomy, full airspace awareness, auto action (takeoff, land, and mission execution), but we are not quite there yet. With more and more UAV’s taking to our skies, safety and flight management are paramount. GPAS are working with world leading software company’s who provide flight management solutions that can, in many cases, mitigate human error. GPAS pilots all hold RePL licenses and operate under the company’s ReOC (application currently being processed) Drones4Good has been established as a division of GPAS to perform community based initiatives. We will be launching a number of these initiatives in the near future.
