AERIAL FIREFIGHTING IN AUSTRALIA

Our highly experienced team of aerial firefighters are an invaluable firefighting asset for Australian emergency services authorities as they fight to protect human lives, infrastructure, wildlife and vegetation. 

Coulson Aviation Australia currently operates a number of New South Wales Rural Fire Service-owned aircraft and manages all maintenance and fleet support systems for those RFS aircraft in Australia. 

As the Australian business arm of global company Coulson Aviation, Coulson Aviation Australia also supports other Australian States with the provision of large aircraft and experienced team members.

With our fleet of Boeing 737 FIRELINERS™, C-130 Hercules fire bombers, CH47D Chinooks, UH60 Blackhawks and Sikorsky helicopters we have the ability to run rapid air attack aerial fire suppression, including initial attack and extended attack protocols.
