Tropic Helicopters Supports Safety on Kilimanjaro with Windsock Donation

Tropic Helicopters has donated several windsocks and helicopter-time to install them at designated helipads located at Shira 2, Barranco, Karanga and Barafu camps atop Mount Kilimanjaro. The windsocks have been inspected and approved by the Tanzania Civil Aviation Authority and will go a long way to ensuring safe mountain flying as they provide pilots with a clear visual representation of wind direction, speeds and downdraft visibility.
