Aerial Newsgathering Services
The ABC has owned and operated helicopters in Sydney and Melbourne for a considerable length of time. It currently operates a leased helicopter in Sydney – 450 hours a year - and an ad-hoc ‘wet-hire’ service in Melbourne.
On review the ABC has decided to expand to a national aerial newsgathering operation (helicopter & fixed wing) with bases in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth. In order to achieve cost-effective solutions, the ABC is inviting innovative proposals from the industry for evaluation.
The ABC specifically needs helicopter and fixed wing services for: Aerial coverage (aerial footage only) in metropolitan and regional areas including: coverage of major natural disasters, ie bushfires, floods and cyclones; regional and metropolitan coverage where the conveyance of a newsgathering crew (reporter & camera operator) is required; and selective coverage of news and current affairs issues in regional areas.
