Unvielling the enhanced BK-117 C1s

After 37 years of service, STARS said its final goodbyes to the BK117 helicopter. In 1985, STARS welcomed the very first BK in December, so it was fitting to pay tribute to the iconic workhorse this month. The BKs will be fondly remembered at STARS, especially by crew members who have accrued thousands of missions over the years. "It's been such an icon to us, just overwhelmingly successful in terms of what they've done to make us what we are." - Greg Curtis, STARS pilot since 1986 #airambulance
