This Alouette III was built by F+W Emmen under licence from Sud Aviation. The helicopter was delivered on 13 October 1973. It was not lucky in its operations. On 27 April 1983 the SA316 was badly damaged at Mollis (Switzerland) during a landing attempt. It was rebuilt but was written off years later, on 14 May 1998. It crashed in the afternoon near Zezikon after it went out of control during a landing. The Alouette III was used at that time by the local police-force, three crew survived the crash.
