Both platforms, helicopters and airplanes, provide unique advantages and produce different results. Neither platform is necessarily better than the other. There are times when using different platforms, at different times, for the same project, works very well. Which platform is best for your project is driven by your needs and the advantages and limitations of each platform and the site to be photographed.

Helicopters are good when you need very oblique views from different directions, or the best view is from a difficult location, such as low over water, wooded or urban areas.

Airplanes usually cost less per hour to operate than a helicopter, especially when traveling cross country for your mission.
