AHI delivers helos to OKC police

The Oklahoma City Police Department’s aviation unit has placed two new Airbus AS350B3e AStar helicopters into service. The helicopters, built by Airbus Helicopters Inc. at its facility in Columbus, Miss., include technological and equipment upgrades to enable the OKC police department to significantly improve its airborne law enforcement and public safety mission capabilities. “The successful process of transitioning to a helicopter that allows for greater functionality, safety and reduced pilot fatigue is a testimony to Airbus Helicopters and their product,” said OKC Police Chief William Citty.
