Irish Hiller

Here is a link to an Irish-registered Hiller. As Bolkow says, this was operated by Irish Helicopters (The Dublin-based company thats still in operation).

Does anyone know which airframe was the first to fly with Irish Helicopters in 1968? Was it the Hiller FH-1100 EI-ART or was it EI-ASW, a Bell 206A? I'd love to know.

It seems the Shannon-based company from 1958 with their UH-12 is totally unrelated to the company that commenced operations in 1968 (as stated earlier). Thanks.
