The order for this helicopter was announced by Specialist Aviation Services at Helitech 2009, held exactly a year ago at Duxford. Â HeliHub.com reported the story here at the time. Â The new helicopter is an extension of the original contract held by SAS subsidiary Medical Aviation Services, who will both operate and maintain the aircraft – which will be based at RAF Waddington. Â The unit flies approx 450 hours per year, a typical figure in UK EMS operations.
