Image description

On 27 November 1952, a helicopter of the Swiss Air Rescue Service REGA type Hiller 360 took off for a demonstration flight with a helper in a balloon basket at Kloten Airport, Switzerland. Injured persons can be transported and cared for in the balloon basket. Just one month later, the system proved itself in Davos in the world's first rescue operation of its kind.
