EC135/145 Utility step mount (Meeker aviation / Airfilm)

Hi All, Does anyone know of any operators worldwide that have access to a Meeker aviation side step mount for the EC135/145? There are not many in circulation in Europe but my understanding is that there may be more in use in the states.

I am looking into the possibility of renting one for 2-3 weeks in June 2013, and am keen to speak to anyone worldwide who may be able to help.

Cal Meeker kindly put me in touch with an operator in Spain but this looks an unlikely lead.

As always, all help much appreciated.

Try Eurocopter UK ( ECUK) in Kidlington UK. They fit the meeker mount to both the EC135 and EC145. Not sure if it is a stock item though.

But I'm sure they will help if they can. Ask for Nick Goodman +441865852400

135

Southern California Edison operate a EC-135 doing various Utility powerline operations. I'm sure if you give the aviation department a call, they will be glad to point you in the right direction.

NHV might have one still in stock, to be mounted together with an SX-5

You might call them?
