Thames Towage Filming at Coldharbour Reach

We run drone operations at Coldharbour Reach throughout the year, in all tide states. That combination of aviation and marine crew is what makes over-water work practical rather than theoretical. Where the river is busy, patience beats improvisation, and we plan for it.

We identify launch and recovery points at Coldharbour Reach that work at the state of tide on the day. Output can be broadcast-ready ProRes, high-bitrate RAW, or georeferenced survey data. We can work outside normal hours where river traffic or light demands it.

Coordination with the Port of London Authority is standard on every flight at Coldharbour Reach. We can supply method statements for the principal contractor's file where the site requires it. Abort criteria are briefed to the crew and the skipper before the first launch.

If weather or tide closes the window, we rebook the next viable slot at no extra cost. We are trusted on the river by operators including CPBS Marine Services, MMS Marine and the Dutch Master. Quotes are fixed, not estimates that drift once the job starts.
