Foundation Helimission bought this AS350 from Eurocopter Malaysia (ECM) in August 2005. It was overhauled and fitted to the Helimission utility standard by ECM in Kuala Lumpur, where it is seen here before being shipped to Switzerland. The heli still carries the previous indonesian registration from the time it was operated by Indonesian Air Transport. Previous registrations were PT-HMC (Brazil) and F-GKMD (France). It became HB-ZHQ in 2006 and later ET-AMW in Ethiopia, where it served with Helimission till 2016. Back in Switzerland an re-registered to HB-ZHQ at the time of upload.

This 1999 built airframe first carried registration F-OHVO before being registered in Malaysia as 9M-JPG. It was later re-registered to 9M-ABU and operated by MAJU Holding, as can be seen on the cowling in this 2005 picture. In June of 2006, the heli was sold to Phoenix Heli-Flight in Canada, where it became C-GTWN. In due course, MAJU Holding replaced this Twin Ecureuil with an EC135P2+, which also got registration 9M-ABU.

Not much is known about malaysian company "Integrated Training & Services", except that in 2005/2006 it tried to provide basic helicopter flight training for the Royal Malaysian AF. For that, the company aquired four EC120s registered 9M-HAA through 9M-HAD, but never really "took off". 9M-HAB shown here was built in 1998 and as such is one of the first Colibri's coming off the assembly line. It previously flew as SE-JDP with HeliNord in Sweden before joining ITS in 2005. In April 2007 it was sold to North America, where it has been flying as C-GOCA for different helicopter operators.
