Intermountain Healthcare Orders Three GrandNew Helicopters

Options Two Additional Aircraft For EMS Services

Intermountain Healthcare has placed orders for three "GrandNew" helicopters, with options for two additional aircraft, AgustaWestland, said Monday   These aircraft will join two A109K2's already in service performing critical medevac missions in Utah and Northern Nevada.

"We are proud to continue our partnership with Intermountain Healthcare," said Louis Bartolotta, Executive Vice President of Marketing and Sales, North America, "The GrandNew helicopter offers increased performance, allowing the helicopter to be operated as an airborne intensive care unit with unprecedented situational awareness and safety.  Intermountain Healthcare is widely seen as a leader in modern healthcare, we are proud to do our part in supporting their work.  With this order, we will continue to support the community served by Intermountain Life Flight and Intermountain Healthcare for years to come.  We do so with a program at the leading edge of the aero-medical community using a fleet of GrandNews, an aircraft at the leading edge of aviation technology.  We are proud of our ongoing affiliation with Intermountain Healthcare."

"This is a wonderful opportunity for Intermountain Life Flight to reach its goal of fleet standardization while benefiting from AgustaWestland's technological advances and enhanced operations with the GrandNew," said Jerry Morrison, Executive Director, Intermountain Life Flight.

Each GrandNew will be equipped with a comprehensive EMS interior featuring single or dual stretchers in addition to a rescue hoist, wire strike protection, snow skis and NVG compatibility. The aircraft will be completed and delivered at AgustaWestland's Philadelphia, Pennsylvania production facility.
