Babcock will continue to provide HIOWAA with an Airbus H135 air ambulance helicopter outfitted with night vision goggles (NVIS) technology, maintenance, airworthiness management, highly trend pilots, and engineering, under the terms of the agreement. Flight hours will also be increased to 19 per day for full-time pilots.

CXO of Hampshire and Isle of Wight state, “Extending our flight hours to 19 hours a day, every day, will guarantee we can continue to offer critical care to people who need it the most. Concerning requirements, Babcock is handling our aviation needs, teams of physicians, paramedics, pilots, and dispatch assistants can focus on saving lives in our region.”
