I well remember when the Bell 212 operated those rigs and some days it did multiple trips to the kinsale oilfield which I understand may only lie 40 miles offshore, but I think an ec135 will be doing multiple flights where a medium size chopper would halve the flight time. So its a chc EC135 then? I wonder if its going to be a new build.

nightjar,
Bond have three/four 365N3s on order. Rumour has it that another Aberdeen operator will be fitting the TCAS systems into the aircraft for Bond in the near future.

Bond do not have the goods!!
They have approached CHC to continue using the N2 on the Leman platform until June/July next year and are trying to lease the two CHC N3s in Canada to put into BPL. Short term until they get theirs from EC!

It is what used to be G-BKXD and is very close to a 'G' check! Very expensive and takes some time! Given the performance of the Ns single engine with the new rules coming in I would be surprised if the 'G' check gets done.
The full story is apparently in today's HeliData News if anyone is interested....Contract details ,aircraft delivery dates,the lot
Unfortunately at £200.00 a year I can't afford the subscription !
