Photo Comment

Agusta Bell delivered many AB205s to Greece, several of them started from the beginning of their operational career as a Search and Rescue helicopter. This one was first delivered in June 1976 to the Greek Army and started to fly as ES647. The Greek Air Force took it over by ther mid-80s and converted it to a SAR bird, since that moment this 4391 is operating with 358 MED at Araxos. It is probably still there in 2019. Old Hueys never die!
