Aerodrome Consulting

Mobius Architecture Inc. is a Lower Mainland based consulting firm which began aerodrome consulting in 2008, focusing on healthcare facility heliports. Our completed projects have been for VCH and Fraser Health facilities, ranging from heliport redevelopment to construction and traffic impact assessments. We have developed an excellent working relationship with Transport Canada and continue to meet regularly with their personnel.

We have recently completed a joint venture agreement with T-O Engineers to bring their experience and personnel to our team. In addition Ron German, retired Civil Aviation Inspector (Pacific Region Transport Canada), has joined us to bring his knowledge of regulations and his experience as a helicopter pilot.

Our multi-disciplinary team provides consulting and coordination services for all aspects of heliport planning and management. We are based in Sechelt, a short seaplane ride from Nanaimo or Victoria.

“Our team provides a complete range of services to ensure that our clients have effective, efficient and safe heliports that are consistent with Transport Canada regulations”
