When you are as tall as me it's not hard to keep a low profile

[Grenville Fortescue]

Taken yesterday at Blackbushe.

If you were to remove the parcel wrap the tail would read G-BURS.

[Camp Freddie]

The whole thing feels like a slow moving train wreck !

[expatflyer]

There can't be many helicopters left in the hangar or engineers for that matter!

[ubique]

What has happened to the Denham operation including G-EHMS?

[Captb747]

To be fair, G-BURS has been for sale for quite a long time and not owned by Premiair. Of course there could be another reason.

[Helinut]

Ubique,

The London HEMS is really nothing to do with Premiair, except they used to operate out of the hangar Premiair rented. Presumably, there is still plenty of space for a little 902, now that all the other aircraft have gone.

[JimBall]

HEMS moved to Northolt 2 months ago.

[wigglyamp]

So where has G-BURS moved to - Gama at Fairoaks, Vector at Gosport or somewhere else?

[FloaterNorthWest]

Vector for it's overdue annual.

[onthe ground]

burs had a gearbox problem before christmas so been on the ground since and now shipped out to vector as is ursa for its annual ,left in the hangar now is 4 heli's ,few more staff leaving at the end of the month

A 1980 S76, is it really economically viable to rebuild it?

[Anthony Supplebottom]

As asked before, does any of this affect Rainbow 1 ?

[OvertHawk]

Rainbow is long gone

.A 1980 S76, is it really economically viable to rebuild it?

No, probably not.

A large operator recently "traded" their remaining A+s on a deal for Ds but not all are in flying condition and will probably go for scrap.

Even the C+ XXEA which was taken in trade for XXEB wasn't sold last time I checked (which was a while ago) and could have been bought for $3m. Sikorsky also had a few other corporate low time C+s for sale not that long ago.

I know of a fully re furbished low time EMS configured C which has been for sale for 4 years.

There are at least 3 offshore configured A++s in Australia for sale but they are past their use by date for the oil and gas industry.

[expatflyer]

I wonder if BURS had been inhibited if it has been sat on the ground ?
Sounds like a sell it for spares aircraft...

[onthe ground]

rainbow 1 has a new base ,moved out about 2 months ago

[Anthony Supplebottom]

Would any one care to divulge where Rainbow is now based and who does the maintenance. They used to have a hangar within a hangar at Blackbushe, I wonder what the set-up is now?

[Brilliant Stuff]

At a place with some serious security! We don't need to advertise this info on PPrune, do we?

[Sky Sports]

I see that Danger Mouse banged out today. Anyone left now? Is there a sweepstake on who is turning off the lights?
