The Domino Effect

Moruya based BK117 B-2 LIFE23 is currently at the Cape Banks Lifesaver Helicopter Base for maintenance, so our Sydney based BK117 B-2 LIFE21 headed down to Moruya to cover for it.

Meanwhile, the bonus for Sydney-siders is that we get Cairns based Bell 412EP VH-ZVP to cover for our Rescue Chopper LIFE21.

VH-XZP is a beast of a machine in immaculate condition, and only when you get up close do you reaslise just how big it is.

XZP was an ex Japanese Government aircraft that was imported into Australia, transported by truck from Sydney's Port Botany Terminal to Bankstown Airport, where Hawker Pacific completed a refit. XZP was flown to Cairns after the refit was completed on the 17th September 2016.

Thank you to Nautilus Aviation for the close up inspection today - Nautilus Aviation Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/nautilusavi...65573476824818
