At Helicraft, we know that every frost event puts your crop and your season on the line. With years of experience in agricultural aviation, our qualified pilots deliver fast, effective aerial frost protection across Victoria’s vineyards and orchards. We’re committed to providing our clients with a reliable, cost-effective service that safeguards your harvest when it matters most.
Our Commitment to Fighting The Cold
Every frost event poses a critical threat to agricultural communities across Victoria. When temperatures drop and still air creates the perfect conditions for crop-damaging frost, our experienced pilots spring into action with a proven technique that works in harmony with natural weather patterns. Our helicopters utilise the rotor downwash to mix the air around your crops, preventing the early morning frost from settling in.
Our helicopters are on standby for when you need it most!
