Fixed-Wing Platforms

New-Sense Geophysics offers a wide range of fixed-wing aircraft survey options. Our tail-mounted stinger magnetometer systems offer safety, flexibility, and rapid coverage over a wide range of environments.

Key Features:

1. STC-Certified Stinger System:
   • Safety and Regulatory Compliance: Our fixed-wing surveys feature a certified (STC) tail-mounted stinger system, ensuring adherence to safety standards set by TC (Transport Canada) and the FAA (USA Federal Aviation Administration). The stinger system eliminates the need for traditional “towed bird systems,” creating a safer survey environment.
2. Versatility Across Fixed-Wing Aircraft:
   • Certified for Various Aircraft Models: The STC-certified stinger system is compatible with an extensive range of fixed-wing aircraft, including:
     • Cessna 206
     • Cessna 208
     • Piper PA-31 Navajo
     • Piper PA-31T Cheyenne I & II
     • King Air A90, C90, 100 & 200

Diverse Configurations for Tailored Solutions:

1. Single Tail Stinger Systems:
   • Tailored for Precision: New-Sense Geophysics offers single tail stinger systems for precision geophysical surveys.
2. Triaxial Wingtip-Tail Gradiometric Arrays:
   • Enhanced Gradient Sensing: Explore the Earth’s secrets with our triaxial wingtip-tail gradiometric arrays, ensuring superior gradient sensing capabilities.

Benefits of Fixed-Wing Surveys:

1. Flexibility Across Aircraft Types:
   • Accommodating Different Aircraft: Our fixed-wing survey systems offer flexibility by accommodating various aircraft types, tailoring the solution to your exploration needs.
2. Rapid Coverage with Long-Range Tanks:
   • Cost-Effective Large Area Surveys: Utilize long-range auxiliary tanks for up to 8 hours of continuous flight, covering large areas rapidly and cost-effectively.
3. Access to Remote Survey Locations:
   • Exploration Beyond Boundaries: Reach remote survey locations with ease, unlocking access to areas previously challenging to explore.
4. Rapid Acquisition for Large Datasets:
   • Efficient Data Collection: Benefit from significantly faster turnaround times for large datasets, optimizing your exploration timelines.
5. Capability for Very Large Regional Projects:
   • Scaling Exploration Horizons: Undertake extensive regional projects confidently, leveraging the capability of fixed-wing surveys.
6. Seamless Integration of Additional Sensors:
   • Expandable Sensor Configurations: Easily integrate gradient magnetic sensors, radiometric gamma-ray detector packs, and VLF EM receivers, enhancing the versatility of your survey platform.

New-Sense Geophysics offers airborne geophysical exploration with fixed-wing surveys, providing a seamless blend of precision, safety, and efficiency.
