Sikorsky S-76A, msn 760018, was delivered new to British Airways Helicopters in the UK for use on offshore oil rig support in the North Sea as G-BZAC. Following CHC's acquisition of the renamed British International Helicopters shares in 1993, G-BZAC was transferred to Canada and became C-GIMA when it joined Canadian Helicopter's fleet of S-76A's flying air ambulance services on contract to the Ontario Ministry of Health. This aircraft was transferred to Ornge in July 2012 and cancelled in October 2015. Most Ornge S-76As were donated to aviation maintenance schools when retired. This photo is copyright © Kenneth I.
