The brief
The schedule followed the work
A monthly calendar misses the moments that matter on a tilt-up job, so the flights moved with the build.
On July 8, 2025 I was in the air a little after 6 AM for the slab pour, as the work lights and pump booms gave way to a full crew at sunrise. When the walls went up in early September I added a flight a week later to catch the roof steel, and the visits kept going through the December snow and a frozen February.

On your site
Big tilt-up job coming up?
I am based in Louisville and fly job sites across Kentucky and Southern Indiana, and farther when a project calls for it. A site a few hours away is scheduled the same way as one across town: the visit windows are set at the start, and every set arrives by download link, organized by date.
Pours, wall lifts and steel days can be scheduled as extra flights inside the same monthly plan, with one clear price.
