HATAKA AS76 Air Ambulance (HEMS) paint set Vol 1

Standard colours of modern European air ambulance helicopters

Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (“HEMS”) or Air Ambulance Services secure transportation of patients to hospitals by air, at the same time providing emergency care. The service is usually operated in a state-run model (like in Polish “LPR” case), fee-for-service model (Swiss “Rega” example) or even public- or private-donated model (like in case of operations supported by German ADAC or Dutch ANWB).

Most of the European HEMS operators are using one of the following helicopter types: Agusta A109K2 or A109S Grand Da-Vinci (for high-mountain operations), Airbus Helicopters EC135, EC145 (originally referred to as BK 117 C2) or (less popular) AS365 Dauphin, eventually Bell 429 – all operated in high-visibility painting schemes.
