More safety for people:
- Protected tail’s rotor reducing the risks of accidents.
- Distance from the ground: 3.55m (when the rotor is revolving)
More safety for the rescue team and the thirds:
Very often, the medical helicopter has to land close to a non trained population. We selected the EC 135 for the safe environment it offers.
More flight safety :
- Compact outside dimensions which allows the landing in reduced accesses.
- 2 engines for more safety
- Large view zone thanks to a reduced instrument panel and large glasses.
- High landing gear offers a good stability in every kind of land.
- Tail’s rotor protected from the ground‘s obstacles.
Better working conditions:
- Reduced bumps during the patient’s loading thanks to a sliding channel system
- 2 large doors which permits to take on board a patient in a ½ seat position.
- An easier stretcher’s loading thanks a double access on the helicopter’s back and side.
- A plan and clear floor without doorstep which make easier the loading and limits the accident risks.
- A simple access for each patient’s body parts + a possible doctor’s positioning at the patient heads to intubate during the flight.
We take part in the patients’ pre hospital conditioning progresses using an adapted aircraft to meet the emergency medicine requirements.
Capacity: Medical team up to 3 persons + 1 patient
Roomy cabin, noiseless interior, low-vibratory level, luminous and safe environment = the unequalled conditions of intervention.
Environment protection:
EC 135 is the quietest helicopter of its category with a twice lower noise pollution.
The medical helicopter often goes in sensitives areas (urban zone, hospitals areas) so we need the silentiest helicopter, and we have chosen the EC 135.
