The local F21 air museum has an interesting line-up of aircraft and helicopters parked outside. One of the latter is this AB204B, or Hkp3 with the Swedish Air Force designation system. It used to wear markings of F10, but has now received marking of the local F21. It flew with this unit in the sixties.

The Swedish Air Force flew the BV107, or Hkp4, from 1963 till 2011. This particular example was delivered on 27 August 1963 and was retired in 1991. It went to the Flygmuseet F21 in 2008.

I think this was brand new back then, first noted operational.

Registered as N10116 before delivery to the Swedish Air Force as 04454 in 1963. Sold to Columbia Helicopters as N194CH in 1991. Reregistered as C-FHCN in 2010 and back to N194CH in 2016.

This AS332M1 Super Puma was delivered to the Flygvapnet in 1990 and assigned to the F 21 'Norrbottens Flygflottilj' Flygräddningsgrupp. The helicopter was written off in an accident when it ditched into the water south of Ronneby in the evening of 1 November 2005 . The Hkp10 participated in a SAR exercise but something went wrong during chain host works. Luckily all four crew survived. The damage to helicopter remained unknown but it is most probably scrapped.
