Blackmac 108 Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Article posted in Vertical Mag by "Orange Helicopters" stating that the B212 helicopter was provided by Viking Helicopters Ltd is, I believe, not quite right. Bandage 1 was actually a Bell 205A1, single engine on lease to Toronto Helicopters, who were operating the service using Vikings licence for that weight category. From EX employee of Viking.

I drop to recycle all my old 80' magazine last week(finally) and i remember that Canadian Aviation Magazine had a article about it and it's definitely a 212...!I But i think that i have a photo of the 205 Bandage ONE!. 212 was C-GONT and think that Bandage TWO was C-GMOH And look at this Credit to STRIDERV on FLICKR Guy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
highbladedown 11 Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Bandage One was a 212, yellow, black and white owned by Toronto Helicopters (Len and Ralph Rutledge)...I know - I worked for both Toronto and Great Lakes Helicopters back in the day, one of the AME's that looked after it. Back up was a 206L/C20B, G-NZR. Bandage 2, also a 212, came along later and was Sudbury based. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
