Ground Transport for Helicopter Transfers
Positioned at the Landing Zone, Ready the Moment They Land.
When a production uses helicopter transport for cast or executives, ground transport needs to be positioned precisely at the landing zone, ready the moment the rotors stop.
Why Helicopter Ground Transport Is Different
Helicopter landings happen at helipads, private sites and temporary on-set landing zones, not terminals with a fixed pickup lane, so ground transport has to be positioned exactly and safely in advance.
Timing is tighter than any other transfer type. A helicopter carrying a high-profile guest to a set visit or premiere cannot circle waiting for a car that isn't in position.
Film Unit Car regularly coordinates ground transport for helicopter movements tied to premieres, set visits and executive travel on UK productions.

Safety and Positioning at the Landing Zone
Vehicles are positioned at a safe, agreed distance from the landing zone, in line with site safety requirements, and moved into place only once it is safe to approach.
Drivers are briefed on the specific site, the exact contact for the guest and any handling requirements, so the ground leg starts the moment it's safe to do so.
