The Inverness based HM Coastguard SAR helicopter leaving its base as it heads West on a mission down to Fort William in Lochaber district.
The S-92 helicopter has become the industry’s standard for safety and reliability. With nearly million fleet flight hours of service, the S-92 helicopter averages 95 percent availability. The S-92 helicopter performs a variety of missions, including offshore oil transportation, search and rescue, Head of State and airline missions. Twelve nations have selected the S-92 helicopter for their critical Head of State missions. In May 2014, Sikorsky was honored to win the Navy Contract to Replace ‘Marine One’ Helicopter Fleet and the vote of confidence in the S-92 as a proven and trusted platform. The world’s most advanced executive transport helicopter will be built off of our commercial platform.
