Tucked away in the Cornish
countryside on the A38 between Plymouth and Liskeard, you will
find Castle Air's impressive facility. Now in it's third
incarnation, you will find the hangars picture below just behind
sister company Castle Motors.
The company was conceived in
1979 and began operations in 1980 from a "glorified hut" in a
field with a single Long Ranger helicopter. It wasn't long |
|
though before the company
received it's first big break supplying two Jet Ranger
helicopters for the Channel 4 TV series "Treasure
Hunt". Seven series were produced in total and in that time
Castle Air became one of the country's leading aerial film
units, able to provide the latest in aerial filming technology
as well as ground support.
