Fate:
Moments prior to 16:00 on 16 November 1999 a Boeing 747 cargo airplane landed at Kallax Airport in Luleå, loaded with Norrlandsflygs new Sikorsky S-76A. It was purchased to fill a need for an extra ambulance helicopter in the company. The aircraft was put in service as "Lifeguard 998" in Norrlands county early in year 2000, based at Vassara Heliport in Gällivare.

With a crew of four the helicopter responded to approx 400-500 emergency calls each year, all over northen Sweden. It operated in an environment where long distances, cold temperatures and isolated areas are common.

The EMS contract in Norrbotten was lost favor for Scandinavian MediCopter in 2010. The new operator started its activities with a Eurocopter Dauphin (LN-OLE, but later SE-JIA) on 1st of December the same year. SE-JUS was transferred to Norrlandsflyg's main base in Gothenburg.

The helicopter was acquired by Norrlandsflyg Ambulans when the new company took over Norrlandsflyg's air ambulance service in Gothenburg on 1 November 2011. Norrlandsflyg had just been purchased by the Swedish Maritime Administration and was transitioning into a fully dedicated search and rescue operator.
