Thames Marine Civil Filming at Corney Reach
Specialist over-water thames marine civil filming at Corney Reach for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
Operations at Corney Reach draw on both our aviation and our marine experience. Clients here include TV productions, marine contractors, port operators and engineering teams. Early starts are normal here, because the best water and the best light rarely coincide with office hours.
Where the Corney Reach flight passes near bridges or moorings, we plan clearances and abort routes first. We carry redundant airframes so a marginal weather window is not a wasted mobilisation. Where the subject is a moving vessel, the shot is planned around its passage, not ours.
We notify the PLA and maintain contact with London VTS throughout operations at Corney Reach. All river flights are logged and the records remain available for your own compliance file. We hold the separation the regulations require from anyone not under our control.
Edited video, stills, orthomosaics and inspection reports follow the flight within 48 hours. Tell us what you need on the water and we will come back with options, tides and a price. 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.
How much notice do you need for river work at Corney Reach?
More than for a land-based shoot, because PLA notification and the tide table both constrain the date. A week or two is comfortable; tell us the deadline and we will tell you honestly whether it is achievable.
Do you work with the vessel operator directly?
Yes, and it makes a noticeable difference to the result. Given the skipper's contact we coordinate the passage and the shot list directly, so the vessel is where the camera needs it rather than the other way round.
