“The bottom line is this: the key to our statewide Fire Service goal of keeping 95 percent of wildfires to 10 acres or less is reliant upon speed and force on initial attack, and these Firehawks are the greatest weapon ever built to achieve that,” said Chief Fennessy. https://lmt.co/4e0tRSa

President Biden's first flight aboard the VH-92A helicopter is a significant milestone for the U.S. Marine Corps and the Presidential helicopter executive lift mission.

For the past seven decades, we've proudly built the aircraft that has flown every U.S. president since 1957. The USMC formally accepted the 23rd and final next-generation VH-92A Patriot presidential helicopter, continuing this legacy for decades to come. This delivery demonstrates the success of the VH-92A helicopter program to design, build and deliver the program of record under budget and within the planned delivery schedule.

Congratulations to Bristow Group Norway for operating the first S-92 to reach 30,000 flight hours! This milestone is a testament to the pilots, crews, and maintainers and the reliability of the S-92, which is all the more impressive given the harsh conditions of the North Sea where they operate.
