Inspection Services

The CVI is one of the most innovative line Inspection methods that Haverfield Aviation utilizes. The CVI utilizes a Helicopter and CVI crew who are specially trained in detecting issues with a transmission line and/or structure. A highly-detailed assessment of the structure, conductor and associated hardware, including pictures of any anomaly and description, are reported. The CVI is flown at a slower pace and within a closer proximity to the transmission lines than our other patrol services. A combination of gyroscopically stabilized optical equipment, high resolution cameras, and naked-eye methods are used to make visual observations. These activities are documented based on a broad and all-inclusive system of condition reporting criteria that can include several levels of detail as needed. Haverfield Aviation has the capability to adapt criteria to customer-specific requests. The value of using Haverfield Aviation regularly for your CVI needs is our familiarity with your system and the partnership that develops in supporting your reliability targets. Any emergency conditions are reported as soon as possible so that any necessary response may be taken quickly.
