What’s the difference between traditional and aerial trimming?

Traditional trimming is done by crews on the ground using bucket trucks, chainsaws, and other tools to safely clear vegetation around power lines. Aerial trimming uses a helicopter equipped with a saw attachment suspended beneath it to trim trees along distribution rights-of-way or in areas difficult to reach from the ground.
