This helicopter was constructed in the US back in 1980. It was operated within the US borders for 17 years before it was exported to JWL Helicopters in the UK. It was operated by Biggin Hill Helicopters and was used for charter flights in the London district. The machine was purchased by the Swedish helicopter school Proflight Nordic AB (Roslagens Helikopterflyg) in late 2006 and was put in service as an IFR trainer in early 2007.

It is operated in the IFR role together with its sister ship SE-HPN (also a Long Ranger).
