Fate:
N927MS
Two brand new Sikorsky S-76C+ helicopters were ordered from the Sikorsky factory. They were put together and modified for SAR alert in less than 6 months! The helicopters, SE-HEJ and –HOJ, went through the extensive all-weather-SAR modification process at Keystone Helicopters and were then air-freighted to Luxembourg during the spring of 2006. The machine destined for Gothenburg, SE-HEJ, was the first one to be delivered, and it was soon followed by SE-HOJ.
The helicopter, which was the very last C+ constructed by Sikorsky, rapidly entered service as Lifeguard 992 in Stockholm. It replaced the backup helicopter, SE-JUZ.
The aircraft was initially positioned at the temporary base at Arlanda Airport, but it was soon moved to Mellingeholm Airfield Norrtälje in order to get closer to the coast.
On 1 November 2011 the Swedish Maritime Administration acquired all the stocks in Norrlandsflyg's parent company Scandinavian Helicopter Invest (SHI). The new helicopter division was named SMA Helicopter Rescue, which became a
subsidiary to Sjöfartsverket Holding (administered by the Swedish Maritime Administration). All the SAR helicopters were included in the deal. The purchase also involved the EMS helicopters SE-JUC and SE-JEZ.
SMA Helicopter Rescue was formally incorporated in the Swedish Maritime Administration on 22 January 2014.
The fleet of S-76 helicopters was gradually replaced by brand new AgustaWestland AW139s, starting with the Umeå SAR station in April 2014 and the Ronneby station later the same year.
The SE-HOJ was offered for sale in mid-2014, with a total time of 2600 hours. It was returned to its leasing owner, Era Leasing LLC, in 2014. It was shipped from Sweden to the United States together with SE-HEJ in early October 2014. The two C+ helicopters were the first two to leave the Swedish Maritime Administration following the launch of the new AW139s.
