To better cover the western part of Südtirol (Vinschgau), "Heli Flugrettung Südtirol" has based an EMS helicopter in Lasa since February 2020. What initially started as a 3 year seasonal trial program, has since developped into a permanent base. The following EC145 / H145 have so far operated as "Pelikan 3": I-SLND, I-AHTD, I-SUEM, I-ATLS and I-PTAH. I-LMBD pictured here was only based in Lana on March 1, 2023, as it was able to accomodate the night flying and spotlight equipment required to guarantee longer operating hours (between 8am and 8pm), well into the darkness during the wintertime.

"Heli Flugrettung Südtirol" was founded in 2010 and has been operating two fixed bases in Bolzano (Pelikan 1) and Bressanone (Pelikan 2). Both Pelikan 1 and 2 wear a basic orange color, while Pelikan 3 pictured here is currently only a 3 year trial program, hence the yellow baisc color. It runs since February 1, 2020 till December 31, 2022, after which it will probably become a permanent base as well. In 2020, H145 I-SLND was Pelikan 3, then between May 29 and October 3, 2021 it was I-AHTD and now since November 6, 2021, yet another H145 (I-SUEM) is covering the region.
