But this is more than just a ride in a helicopter, this flight represents a landmark moment in SCAA’s history, and by stepping on board you will have played your own special part in making Operation Skyward a success.

Why is the new helicopter available for this flight?
For the month of September, thanks to the support of our aviation partner, Babcock Mission Critical Services Onshore, SCAA has the opportunity to showcase the new helicopter to the people of Scotland through a variety of activities around the country. This will take place alongside training our crew will undertake on the new air ambulance prior to it going live in October. Our existing Aberdeen aircraft will remain fully crewed and online while all of this activity takes place, ensuring no one in Scotland dies because help can't get there in time.
