The Augusta AW109E Power helicopter is the newest addition to the Hatzolah Air fleet, with the organization announcing its arrival just this week.
“Hatzolah Air is proud to announce the arrival of our first U.S.-based helicopter, the Augusta AW109E Power,” the organization wrote on social media. “This remarkable addition to our already impressive helicopter fleet, which supports EMS heli-rescues throughout Israel, marks a significant milestone for our organization.”
The helicopter landed this week at the Hatzolah Air hanger at Sullivan County Airport, where it will be be based for the near future. The helicopter will play a crucial role in Search & Rescue, organ transfers, passenger repositioning, medical and aviation crew deployment, and urgent point-to-point dispatches.
“This new helicopter is more than just an aircraft; it symbolizes hope, life, and the unwavering dedication of Hatzolah Air’s team members across the globe,” Hatzolah Air said. “Our commitment to the communities we serve remains stronger than ever.”
Volunteer driven, and donor funded since 2019, Hatzolah Air is dedicated to providing emergency medical air transport services to individuals in urgent need where ever they may be.
Hatzolah Air presently fields a fleet of three fixed wing airplanes as well as multiple helicopters working in Medivac roles in Israel. This purchase of a US based helicopter provides a new level of care that Hatzolah Air can provide to the community.
