Bell has delivered a 429 to Kuwait International Leasing, which is destined for operation by the Emirate’s Ministry of Health for Helicopter Emergency Medical Services (HEMS). The aircraft joins two other Bell 429s already in service with the Ministry. Commenting on the delivery, Steven Mathews, Vice President, Kuwait International Aircraft Leasing, said: “We’re delighted to receive this latest addition to our fleet of 429s, being already very familiar with the model’s excellent performance in our extreme summer temperatures. This new aircraft means we can expand our services even further, helping mobilise patients quickly and comfortably to medical facilities; and, ultimately, save more lives”.
