CBH Aviation has over 25 years of experience in powerline inspections. What separates us from the competition is our Operators and Observers. Each team member is a highly trained, highly experienced professional that goes above and beyond the normal scope of powerline inspection when working on your system. The equipment that is used in these inspections can help to find problems but it’s up to an experienced operator to know how to use it in its full capacity.
