Ireland largest ever mobilisation of helicopters

on the 7Th of July sick children from twenty different hospitals around Ireland will be air lifted to the lakes of blessinton near Dublin for a great days events laid on by the bubblegum Charity. in cooperation with private helicopter owners in Ireland.this is the fifth year this has taken place with the heli count going up each year.four of us "all pilots " take on the task to recruit and coordinate with our fellow pilots the operation.this year we hope to have
fifty helicopters ranging from r44,206,120 ,407,222.s76,109,135 you name it ,it will be there .all owners give there heli for free including the pilot services .Ireland,s air core supply ground and air opps on site each year.i will post this years pics after the event.
has anyone else carried out this type of operation in there country as we are always open to helicopter ideas to give the kids a better day each year .

ps. we hope to lift about 250 kids on the day.weather permitting.
