How David Professionally Hauled a Sikorsky Helicopter For The Local
Sheriff's Office
When the local Sheriff's office had mechanical issues with their Sikorsky
S-76 Helicopter,
they immediately called David Isherwood. David is a an expert hauling specialist out of
our Fort Myers, Florida office.
The Sheriff's office wanted a reliable and affordable company to haul the helicopter
from Marathon to Fort Pierce, Florida.
At Heavy Haulers, we are always proud to assist our first responders in any
way we can--especially when it comes to transport.
David took down all the details and quickly got started on the transport
details.

Utilizing Cranes to Load The Sikorsky Helicopter At Pickup and
Delivery
The Sheriff's office had an overhead crane at the hangar that was ready to
load the fuselage on a removable gooseneck (RGN) trailer. The Sheriff's office did not
need to transport the rotor blades. However, the fuselage of the Sikorsky S-76C
Helicopter was 9 ft wide, which exceeds the standard load dimensions.
So, David pulled the proper permits to haul the helicopter fuselage safely
and legally.
The team secured the helicopter to the RGN trailer with ratchet straps at
several points. This ensured the balance, steadiness, and safety of transport.
The helicopter transport was a next-day delivery, and the repair company had
a mobile crane ready to lift the Sikorsky helicopter off the trailer.
