Miss Dippy – HS-EAL

At the heart of the Dugong Shepherds is HS-EAL, also affectionately known as “Miss Dippy”.
Operated by Nok Flying Club; HS-EAL is a two seat high wing Tecnam P92JS aircraft with a 100 HP Rotax piston engine.
She likes to fly low and slow and with her doors off, making an excellent camera platform for aerial surveying.
The other great advantages are a very quiet engine, which does not disturb the animals, and the ability to use car petrol as fuel, thus greatly simplifying the operation.
Her home base is Nok Airfield in Chiang Mai, but during the marine survey season, she is based at Phuket Airpark, Krabi Airport, and Trang Airport.
We also use HS-EAL for surveying potential Gibbon release sites, and forest fire prevention.
