Airbus has delivered the first H160 in the U.S. to PHI Aviation, marking the beginning of H160 operations in the country. This is the first of the initial four H160 helicopters that  PHI will operate for offshore transportation in the Gulf of Mexico.  Prior to beginning commercial operations, the helicopter will be used in a route-proving programme designed to demonstrate the H160’s capabilities in the demanding offshore environment. This will help facilitate a smooth entry into service, ensuring the operator and final customer are familiar with the aircraft’s advanced technology and safety features.

Sometimes a life can be saved in a matter of minutes. In such cases, you need to be able to intervene as quickly as possible. In France, 63 helicopters fly for the SAMU (Urgent Medical Aid Service), including 21 of the H135 family. These ‘ambulance’ helicopters carry out two types of missions: - ‘primary’ flights, in which case the aim is to land as close as possible to the patient and evacuate them as quickly as possible to hospital, - ‘secondary’ flights, which involve transferring patients between two hospitals. #AirbusHelicopters #MakingMissionsPossible #H135 #SavingLives #AirAmbulance

On Search and Rescue Aviation Day in Brazil, we pay tribute to all the people who play a vital role in saving lives. Today more than ever, in the aftermath of Rio Grande do Sul, we thank the heroes who bring out the best in our helicopters when no one else can come to the rescue. #AirbusHelicopters #MakingMissionsPossible #SavingLives #SAR #ProtectingPeople #Helibras

Last March, the first phase of entry into service was completed with the operational evaluation of the H135 “Nival” of the Armada’s Twelfth Squadron, located at the Rota naval base in Spain. The tests were carried as part of the DGAM-led programme (Dirección General de Armamento y Material). For several weeks, systems tests were carried out, sensors were installed and take-offs and landings were performed on a Spanish naval ship. These tests have made it possible to gather information on the behaviour of the H135 on a “Maritime Action Ship (BAM)”, both during the day and at night. They will be fully operational at the end of the year, covering a wide range of missions within the Twelfth Aircraft Flotilla Squadron (FLOAN). #AirbusHelicopters #H135 #MilitaryAviation #MakingMissionsPossible
