Calhoun County, Texas

Aerial application in Calhoun County, Texas

Calhoun County is flat Gulf Coast land with as much water as ground, and aerial application is one way to cover ground that is hard to cross.

We fly from locations in Bay City, Ballinger, Cameron and Brady, Texas.

Flat ground and a lot of water

Calhoun County lies on the Gulf Coast between Houston and Corpus Christi, and Port Lavaca is its county seat.  It was formed on April 4, 1846, and its terrain is flat, rising to only about 50 feet above sea level.  The Guadalupe River and Chocolate Bayou drain the county, and Green Lake lies within it.[1]

Water makes up about half of the county's total area, and wet low ground can be hard to cross with ground equipment.  Work from the air avoids those obstacles.

Is aerial work an option for marsh or shoreline acreage?

Marsh and shoreline are hard to cross on the ground, so they are a common reason to look at aerial application.  Call (256) 590-3869 and describe the property.
