“Furthermore, STARS’ maintenance team took care of these aircraft like they were fine porcelain, giving the appearance that they just left the factory last week,” he added.

Linda Dalgetty, CFO of STARS, said: “We are so pleased that these wonderful aircraft, after decades of lifesaving service, will carry on performing tasks for others while sharing the airspace with our newly introduced, state-of-art H145 helicopter fleet.”
