Due to its flight characteristics and its control mimic, and unlike other helicopter types, the “Lama” can be used in adverse weather conditions both in alpine altitudes as well as in high temperatures (while running our helicopter saw weighing approx. 450 kg).
With this machine, HELIMATIC pilots can give it 100 percent, even under conditions of steady wind, rain and light, dry snowfall.
In any assignment, security for all participants is the primary concern. This is why it is the pilot alone who decides on starting, continuing or discontinuing an assignment.
