BK117 in Bad Tolz, Germany

Post by korenwolf »

Hi all;

I saw this article this morning, it says that there is an ex-German Army BK117 in a mountain rescue training centre at Bad Tolz.

Now I'm guessing that the cab may actually not be from a German Army example, as they didn't operate the type, as far as I'm aware. Possibly ex-Polizei?

Cheers KW

Actually at least one was used by the military, 98+22. This one is nowadays preserved at Stuttgart. Don't know about the one in Bad Tolz though...
