HALO getting second helicopter, hospital helipad passes inspection
MEDICINE HAT, AB – After over a decade of operating with just one helicopter, HALO Air Rescue is doubling the size of their fleet.
HALO is purchasing a new twin-engine BK 117 model aircraft, something that chairman Dale Thacker said is necessary for growing the program.
“We ran into a situation here at a joint fundraiser between HALO and STARS, that we were told that the Emergency Link Centre wouldn’t take the HALO program seriously until we had a twin-engine helicopter.”
