Thames Towage Filming at King's Reach
Specialist over-water thames towage filming at King's Reach for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
If your project sits at King's Reach, we can plan and fly it with the river permissions already in place. Clients here include TV productions, marine contractors, port operators and engineering teams. Where the river is busy, patience beats improvisation, and we plan for it.
Magnetic interference near steel structures at King's Reach is factored into the flight plan. We fly marine-configured aircraft rated for the wind speeds the river corridor regularly produces. Flights are kept tight, because on the river loiter time costs you the tide rather than buying better footage.
Any King's Reach operation is logged with the river authorities before the crew arrives. We can supply method statements for the principal contractor's file where the site requires it. We do not fly outside our permissions, whatever the production schedule says.
Deliverables come in the format your editorial or engineering team already works in. Get in touch to discuss thames towage filming at King's Reach and we will quote without obligation. If the tides do not work for your deadline, we will tell you rather than string it out.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the tide affect a shoot at King's Reach?
Tide decides what is visible, what is navigable and where we can launch and recover. We plan King's Reach operations around the tide table first and build the shot list around the window that gives you the best water.
How much notice do you need for river work at King's 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.
Can you launch drones directly from boats at King's Reach?
Yes. Through our partnership with Cinecraft we have access to MCA-coded workboats and support vessels, and our pilots are experienced in launching and recovering from a moving deck.
