Det er nå endelig avklart at det nye redningshelikpteret som veltet på Sola i november i fjor vil bli reparert ved fabrikken i Yeovil. Det er beregnet at Leonardo AW101 0268 vil være ferdig reparert i løpet av ca. 6 mnd. og at det vil være tilbake på Sola i løpet av sommeren 2019.
Det foregår for øyeblikket operativ testing og evaluering med de 3 helikoptrene som så langt er levert på Sola, dette er 0264, 0265 og 0270.

It is estimated that the Leonardo AW101 0268 will be fully repaired within approx. 6 months.
and that it will be back at Sola during the summer of 2019.

There are currently operational testing and evaluation with the 3 helicopters so far delivered to Sola,
this is 0264, 0265 and 0270.
