Heli-Expo 2024: Airbus, DRF Luftrettung Sign Deal For H145s

At the HAI Heli-Expo 2024, German helicopter emergency medical services operator DRF Luftrettung has ordered up to 10 Airbus H145s. While seven of the total are part of a firm order, the remaining three are optional. Moreover, the choppers purchased in this deal will be covered by DRF’s fleet-wide HCare Smart contract. That provides comprehensive parts-by-the-hour support.

DRF Luftrettung is not only among the largest but also the most experienced air rescue organisations across Europe. It and its subsidiaries operate over 50 Airbus H135 and H145 helicopters through 40 bases spread throughout Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein and Switzerland. Besides providing emergency rescue and intensive care transportation solutions, DRF Luftrettung also operates special missions, including hoist operations and day and night services.
