Built in 2024 and delivered new to Air Zermatt in March of 2024, this H125 is the 2nd "HB-XCL" operated by the swiss helicopter pioneer. The registration was chosen with a historic reason, as "HB-XCL" has previously been assigned to Air Zermatt's very 1st helicopter, an AB206A Jet Ranger with c/n 8028. First operated by Heliswiss and then by Air Zermatt as from 19 December 1968, the underpowered Jet Ranger on March 12, 1969 suffered a landing accident on the Theodul Glacier in adverse weather condition, and has consequently been written off.
