SATELLITE TRACKING OF AIRCRAFT
Kestrel Aviation has fitted satellite tracking devices to all of our fire fighting aircraft which enables
management and ground support teams to have up to date details on all our aircraft within minutes.
Data from the satellite tracking software can be downloaded from the internet into Google Maps, or transposed on to
fire maps to show where the aircraft is operating, while the aircraft is still airborne.
Below are some images of the data from VH-NSY a Bell 212 operating on Black Sunday.
