The AS350 Écureuil (now Airbus Helicopters' H125) is a light multi-role helicopter. It was Aérospatiale's first helicopter type to be produced on an assembly line.
In 2010, the highest mountain rescue to date at 7,000 m.a.s.l. was successfully carried out in Nepal with an AS350. The pilot and rescue specialist were from Switzerland.
To this day, the "Ecureuil" - squirrel in German - is also the only helicopter ever to have landed on the summit of Mount Everest
Due to the large cabin, the manoeuvrability and the enormous power, the range of application is extremely wide. That is why the H125 is very popular, especially in the mountains.
Thanks to the ingenious design, every seat has its advantages.
From the rear seat, you can enjoy either a window seat or a direct view of the cockpit.
