Bell 214B-1, C-FZVT, has been registered to Black Tusk Helicopters of Squamish, BC since May 1997. The helicopter previously operated in the United States as N9941K and in Norway as LN-OSG with Helikopter Service AS and Lufttransport AS (a HS company). Black Tusk acquired a new Kaman K-Max C-FZVM in March 2021 for logging so its three Bell 214B-1s could be dedicated to firefighting, but the K-Max crashed in the ocean while logging near Killam Bay, BC on October 4, 2021. The family-owned company also operates two Bell 206B's, a Airbus AS350B2 and a new K-Max, C-FZVB, delivered in March 2022

Black Tusk Helicopters imported C-FBBT from Korea in June 2015. This well travelled aircraft was previously N3891J, JA9274, N314CR, N214NS, C-GTWL, and HL9152. It was previously operated in Canada by Transwest Helicopters in 2001-2002. Black Tusk bought a new Kaman K-Max C-FZVM in March 2021 for logging so its three Bell 214B-1s could be fully dedicated to firefighting, but the C-FZVM crashed in the ocean while logging near Killam Bay, BC on October 4, 2021. The family-owned company also operates two Bell 206B's, a Airbus AS350B2 and a new K-Max, C-FZVB, delivered in March 2022.

Pictured new with Transwest Helicopters, C-GTWH would later fly in Norway as LN-OPV and Switzerland as HB-XVZ. It returned to Canada in 2003, but it's registration had already been re-used by Transwest for another Bell 214 (cn 28017). Taking the registration C-GTWV, the helicopter was written off on July 10, 2010 during fire fighting sortie. Losing engine power it hit hard during the emergency landing . The two crew escaped, but the machine caught fire and burned.

This pair, with 4-9422 (c/n 17202) on the right, along with the others seen across the runway from Terminal 1, likely fell under the local Base Flight/SAR detachment.

Six Bell 214Bs were noted on the platform, of which four could be identified. The type has been reported to be operated by the Assault Sqn as well as the Base Flights/SAR detachments. The information that one such latter unit is stationed at Mehrabad with seven Bell 214s makes it likely that is the operator of these Bells.

Notable, the tail marking on the vertical fin appears to be similar to the personal markings of Eric Hartman as seen on Jagdgeschwader 71 (JG 71) Canadair Sabre MK6 and the Bf109 during WW II. Also on a closer inspection of the lower portion of the vertical fin, it appears to have a hole in the skin. Previous registrations LN-OSW, P2-OSW, and C-GTWS.
