Bell 212 Twin Huey engine start and take off from Karres Heli Austria base

We made our third Austria winter trip this February. Our main destination this year was Innsbruck again, but we spend the first day at Karres, next to Heli Austria, Martin Flugrettung helicopter base. In the base there was an MD-902 on duty, but in the hangar there were some surprise… One of these surprises was the Heli Tirol Bell 212 heavy lift helicopter. The Bell 212 Twin Huey is a two-blade, twin-engine, medium helicopter that first flew in 1968. The 212 is marketed to civilian operators and has a fifteen-seat configuration, with one pilot and fourteen passengers. In cargo configuration the 212 has an internal capacity of 6.23 m³ an external load of up to 2,268 kg can be carried. In addition to military purposes, the type mostly used to air ambulance, air police patrol, border control, firefighting and heavy lifting. The small brother of the 212 is the Bell UH-1 Huey, one of the most famous helicopter in the world, from Vietnam War.
