It is easily accessed via two hinged crew doors, two sliding passenger doors and two large rear clamshell doors.
Easy loading of stretchers (even with rotors turning), availability of state-of-the-art medical equipment, and low vibration level during flight make the
Eurocopter BK-117 Helicopter one of the leading twin-engined EMS/SAR helicopters in the world.
The Eurocopter BK-117 Helicopter is fitted with two Turbomeca Arriel 1E2 power plants with automatic speed control, in addition to a modified tail rotor, and possesses outstanding flight characteristics. Its extraordinary performance in flight wins the helicopter immediate popularity and its rigid rotor system (Bölkow) makes for exceptional maneuverability.
