Thames Marine Civil Filming in Canary Wharf
Specialist over-water thames marine civil filming at Canary Wharf for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
Thames Marine Civil Filming in Canary Wharf is routine work for our Thames crews. That combination of aviation and marine crew is what makes over-water work practical rather than theoretical. Repeat work in Canary Wharf keeps the same crew wherever scheduling allows.
Operations in Canary Wharf are timed to the tide and to gaps in commercial river traffic. Where the shot demands it, we launch and recover from an MCA-coded support vessel. Time on site is agreed in advance so vessel and shore teams can plan around it.
We notify the PLA and maintain contact with London VTS throughout operations in Canary Wharf. We can supply method statements for the principal contractor's file where the site requires it. If wind or river conditions turn on the day, the pilot's call is final.
We retain the raw river capture in case you need to return to it later. We are trusted on the river by operators including CPBS Marine Services, MMS Marine and the Dutch Master. There is no obligation attached to an enquiry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you carry out structural inspections on Thames bridges and piers?
Yes. We fly high-zoom and thermal payloads for close-range condition surveys of bridges, piers, river walls and marine civil works, and can deliver the output as an annotated report or georeferenced imagery.
Can you fly at night or in low light on the river?
Yes. Night and blue-hour work over the Thames is something we do regularly, with the lighting conditions and additional risk factored into the plan. Twilight often gives the strongest results on the tideway.
Are you insured for flying over water?
Yes. We carry £10M public liability insurance written to cover over-water operations, and can provide the certificate along with our CAA authorisation and a job-specific risk assessment before booking.
