These three aircraft will be based in Grenoble, Valence, and Montpellier. They will complement the three H145s already ordered by SAF in 2018 and 2020, the first of which was delivered recently and will be deployed for EMS missions in Belgium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SAF is a key actor of EMS in France and Europe. This French company already operates 55 Airbus helicopters. SAF\u2019s fleet includes a Super Puma, H135s and H125s. The H145 will bring increased capabilities for the EMS missions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new version of Airbus\u2019 best-selling H145 light twin-engine helicopter was unveiled at Heli-Expo 2019 in Atlanta in March. This latest upgrade adds a new, innovative five-bladed rotor to the multi-mission H145, increasing the useful load of the helicopter by 150 kg. The simplicity of the new bearingless main rotor design will also ease maintenance operations, further improving the benchmark serviceability and reliability of the H145, while improving ride comfort for both passengers and crew. The helicopter\u2019s high-mounted tail boom and wide opening clam-shell doors facilitate access to the H145\u2019s spacious cabin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Airbus has more than 1,470 H145 Family helicopters in service around the world, logging a total of more than six million flight hours. For EMS alone, there are more than 470 helicopters of the H145 family conducting air rescue missions worldwide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marignane,France 16 June 2021 \u2013 SAF Group will be operating three more five-bladed Airbus H145 helicopter&#8217;s for emergency medical services (EMS).
