Ornge is the air ambulance service in the Province of Ontario. It operates a fleet of eight Pilatus Next Generation PC-12 turboprops and 12 Leonardo AW-139 helicopters. C-GYNO was photographed at Billy Bishop Toronto City Centre Airport which is usually home for two AW139s. The other AW139 bases a located in Ottawa, Sudbury, London, Moosenee, Thunder Bay and Kenora. The Ontario Ministry of Health's air ambulance program launched in the late 1970s with a single IFR Bell 212 operating as "Bandage One" from Buttonville Airport, north of Toronto. A second 212 followed, then a BK117 and two S-76As. This photo is copyright © Kenneth I. Swartz, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
