Aviação de asas rotativas no estado de goiás: oportunidades, desafios e perspectivas futuras

Abstract

The Rotary-wing aviation, primarily represented by helicopters, is a crucial segment of the transportation infrastructure in the state of Goiás. This study addresses the opportunities, challenges, and future prospects of rotary-wing aviation in the region, focusing on the issue of inadequate infrastructure for landing, takeoff, and refueling operations. Goiás has stood out on the national scene due to its strategic position and rapid economic growth, which increases the demand for efficient air transport services. Rotary-wing aviation emerges as an alternative capable of overcoming geographical and land infrastructure limitations. However, the scarcity of certified heliports and strategically distributed refueling points throughout the state represents a significant obstacle. This deficiency compromises the safety, efficiency, and expansion of air services, in addition to limiting emergency response and the development of sectors such as tourism and healthcare. The general objective of this work is to analyze the current panorama of rotary-wing aviation in Goiás, identify the challenges faced, and outline suggestions for fully leveraging the opportunities the sector offers. The methodology involved a review of specialized websites and documents. The results indicate that, despite the challenges, there is significant potential for the growth of rotary-wing aviation in Goiás. The implementation of public policies aimed at improving infrastructure and creating incentives for private investment may be viable paths to overcome current barriers and seize future opportunities.
