ROTORTECH will feature remote-piloted aircraft systems

The 2021 ROTORTECH Helicopter and Unmanned Flight Exposition is an industry event for the helicopter and commercial UAV community in Australia, New Zealand and the Indo-Asia-Pacific region, including:

• Operations and safety presentations
• Industry conferences
• Manufacturers’ technical workshops
• An industry exposition showcasing the products and services of more than 100 helicopter and unmanned flight-related companies

ROTORTECH will host conferences by the AHIA and Australian Association for Unmanned Systems (AAUS), plus OEM Manufacturers Workshops from Airbus, Bell, Boeing and Robinson, supported by Australia’s Aviation Maintenance Repair and Overhaul Business Association (AMROBA). It will include a static display park featuring 14 helicopters. Reflecting the rise of remote-piloted aircraft systems in several helicopter-related markets, ROTORTECH will include unmanned aerial vehicles and coverage of the opportunities and challenges they provide for helicopter operators.

ROTORTECH 2018 was a success

ROTORTECH 2018 was a success, attracting 95 exhibitors for an exposition, including three days of conferences, with 30 speakers across some 22 sessions on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast.

The conference covered major themes from aerial firefighting to new Civil Aviation Safety Authority performance categories, helicopters and airports and the commercial and safety impact of unmanned aerial vehicles. It also saw presentation of the Australian Helicopter Industry Association’s inaugural annual industry awards at a gala dinner.

Dramatic growth in demand for the event has prompted organizers to select the Royal International Convention Centre, Brisbane as a larger, more easily accessible venue with audiovisual facilities and integrated conference centre for ROTORTECH.
