The different types of helicopter used in load flights and helicopter transport , have different max. lifting capacity and weight for repetitive loads at standard conditions . It is very important to load flights not to exceed these , as this may cause a lot of time on reloading . Remember that in wet weather can dry cargoes absorb moisture from the air and helicopter transport may increase the percentage weight! This changes the weight ratios under load flights . Ex . Leca !

Lift of building materials for cabins 1000kg is a common work weight for load flights . Ask that all packets from the building materials supplier is weighed and labeled.
