Photo Comment

Helicopters Without Borders (HWB) is a Vancouver based non-profit organization that delivers health, wellness, and critical support to remote communities and population struck by disaster across British Columbia. It was established by Danny Sitnam, the founder of Helijet International and associates on January 12, 2021 during Covid-19. This S-76C++ is the second S-76 to carry a HWB colour scheme. It is leased from Eagle Copters in Calgary, AB, which acquired several S-76C++ from the Bristow Group, including this aircraft, in November 2020. This aircraft was previously N80907 and later N871AL.
