FAA Part 107 · COA-04471 · Bozeman, MT

Precision data,
flown from above.

Greenwing Aerial Systems flies survey, inspection, agriculture, and cinema missions across the Northern Rockies — turning airspace most people can't reach into maps, thermal reports, and footage your team can actually use.

What we fly

Six missions. One flight operation.

Every service below is flown by the same in-house pilot roster and processed through the same data pipeline, so your point of contact stays consistent no matter the mission type.

How a mission runs

From airspace check to finished deliverable, in four steps.

Step 1

Scope the airspace

We pull FAA airspace authorizations, check NOTAMs, and confirm site access before a single rotor turns.

Step 2

Fly the mission

Certified Part 107 pilots fly pre-planned grid or orbit paths with redundant RTK positioning and a visual observer on tricky sites.

Step 3

Process the data

Raw imagery is stitched, georeferenced, and quality-checked in our processing pipeline, not handed back unedited.

Step 4

Deliver and brief

You get a walkthrough of the deliverable with your point of contact, plus formats that drop straight into your existing GIS or CAD workflow.

Fleet & certifications

Nine aircraft, matched to the mission, not the other way around.

We don't force every job onto one airframe. Mapping missions fly on fixed-wing platforms with RTK modules; inspection and cinema work fly on multirotors carrying radiometric thermal or 6K cinema payloads.

Client reports

What comes back after the flight.

Greenwing found a delaminating membrane seam on our east roof that our own maintenance crew had walked past for two years. The thermal report paid for the flight three times over in avoided water damage.
Owen Kettleworth
Facilities Director, Sourdough Distribution Center
We switched our NDVI flights from a regional co-op to Greenwing in the 2024 season and cut our nitrogen input by 14 percent on the west pivots alone. The prescription files just work with our applicator.
Devika Ramnarine
Agronomy Lead, Ramnarine Family Farms
They turned around our listing flyover in four days flat during a record snow week, graded footage and all. Every other outfit we called quoted three weeks.
