[sar 303 sqn]

Hello all,

Back from a vacation and between skiing, hiking and paragliding we made also some stops near some helicopters.
Here my log.

Zams Hospital:

So after departing from Innsbruck it OE-XEY went to Zams to replace the previously machine.

St. Anton am Arlberg:
OE-XXR EC135 T1 HAT ÖAMTC/Wuchter Alpin 3
This one was remarkable. Alpin 3 is operated by a cooperation between ÖAMTC and Wucher.
But the OE-XXR is a helicopter owned by SHS and so had the red/yellow colorscheme.
When arriving at the heliport I had to punch myself first to be sure what I saw.

Hi Jan,
Thanks for the log and nice pictures. Regarding Alpin 3 (St. Anton). 2 yrs ago we also seen a SHS EC135 (OE-XXR) operating as Alpin 3, last year it was an OEMTC. They all operate for HAT and swapping every year. In 2011 we saw a SHS at Tux and this year it is OEMTC again.

regards,
Michiel
