Precision Support for Timber and Land Management

​

Edgefield Aviation provides specialized helicopter services tailored to the unique challenges of forestry operations across the Pacific Northwest. Our fleet and crews are trained for precise, efficient, and environmentally responsible support in all phases of forest management—from aerial herbicide and site prep to crew transport and drip torching.

We partner with timber companies, state and federal agencies, and reforestation contractors to deliver safe, cost-effective aerial solutions that reduce ground impact and maximize productivity in rugged, hard-to-reach terrain.

​

Core Capabilities

• Aerial Spraying: Targeted herbicide, site-prep, and release applications to control competing vegetation and promote healthy stand establishment.

• Aerial Site Survey: Rapid-response helicopter surveys for pre-harvest planning, land assessment, and regeneration tracking.

• Post Burn Rangeland Seeding: Safe and efficient native grass and shrub rehabilitation.

• Drip Torching: Controlled burn support for fuel management, prescribed fire operations, and habitat restoration.

• Fertilization: Granular bucket work to restore soil nutrients and promote accelerated growth in managed forests.

Commitment to Safety and Stewardship

Every mission is conducted in alignment with FAA and U.S. Forest Service safety standards. Our pilots and ground crews operate under an FAA-approved maintenance and safety management program, ensuring reliability in even the most demanding environments.
