“Independent” is an accurate assessment of the way Mark Read runs his Independent Helicopters Ltd company: it’s a one-air craft one-man operation working from a base at Prebbleton, south of Christchurch, but doing a multiplicity of tasks 🚁🏗

Mark and his helicopter play multiple heavy-lifting roles in the construction industry with a couple of his regular Canterbury clients being JAR Builders LTD, a design-and-build company that counts earthquake-related repairs among its services, and HGM Construction Ltd which does a range of work like slope retention in sling and helicopter operations.
