In April 2021, Air-Glaciers bought two 2nd hand AS-350B2's, HB-ZYE being one of them. Air-Glaciers's B2's are mainly used for spraying vineyards in the canton of Valais and Vaude. Originally built in 1981 as AS-350B, it was at one point converted to B1 and then eventually to B2. Among the various registrations it carried over the years, the most interesting are SX-HBI when operated by Olympic Airways in Greece, after which it became ES-37 with the Algerian Gendarmerie (El Dark El Watani).
