Photo Comment

A technical problem forced this helicopter to spend the night at this parking lot next to a road. Built in 2001 as EC-135T1, upgraded to EC-135T2 around 2007. Based at Newquay and operated by Bond Air Services on behalf of Cornwall Air Ambulance till 2016, when the heli was sold to Babcock International and re-registered G-NHEM. Cornwall Air Ambulance was founded in 1987, becoming the UK's first Air Ambulance service.
