 This MBB BK-117 B-2 is c/n 7248 was initially allocated the German registration of D-HFIM to Eurocopter Deutschland GmbH but became D-HWWW in January 1993 for DRF Luftrettung.

It was used in the EMS role until being withdrawn and cancelled on 15-08-2019.

It was very kindly donated to the Museum by Salus Aviation of Ardmore.
