Babcock Australasia recently delivered a Bell 412 helicopter to the SA Ambulance Service as part of its ongoing partnership with the State Rescue Helicopter Service.

Peter Carter, director of Carter Capner Law, said he has been helping people suffering ongoing injuries from the crash including PTSD, and urged anyone affected – including bystanders and first responders – to submit claims by Christmas or risk missing…

The helicopter (similar aircraft pictured) was located after a search by an Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) Challenger rescue jet, as well as a Victorian Air Ambulance helicopter and a local skydiving aircraft, the ABC has reported.

Both companies demonstrated the helicopter’s ability to be commanded to take-off, identify the location and size of a small fire, and then accurately drop water to suppress the flames.
