Sydney’s Luna Park ride development team called on Pilot Air

As a feature ride with dynamic size to weight ratios and high-velocity execution, the complex air compressor system and air pipework needed to be intrinsically accurate with a robust system that would successfully perform under the stresses and demands of the ride’s platform.

“Luna Park Sydney has a long and very successful relationship with Pilot Air. We have full faith in the air compressor systems supplied by Pilot Air, so when it came time for the large-scale ride development process at Luna Park Sydney, naturally we turned to Pilot Air for their expertise and thorough understanding of our needs and the demands of our equipment,” said Chris Pierce, Maintenance Manager at Luna Park Sydney.

“Pilot Air has an excellent reputation. They are very proactive in their preventative maintenance activities, which ensure minimal downtime. They provide clear information on the asset lifecycle and complete transparency on any new development and capital expenditure. Having this level of knowledge is critical to our asset planning and budgeting requirements,” said Chris.

“We installed a temporary solution for the park’s operator that could manage the demands of the Big Dipper until the unit arrived. The installation workaround created by the team was highly effective in solving a difficult problem and keeping the project on track. The team needed to work in collaboration with other trades and technicians who had been contracted to complete other works. The Pilot Air team was instrumental in assisting other contractors in fulfilling their obligations and the project showcased our teamwork skills and knowledge of complex installations,” said Tony Featherstone, National Sales Manager at Pilot Air.
