Fort Worth—July 15, 2008 Texas Aviation Services, an industry leader in helicopter and aircraft completions, MRO and maintenance services for over 37 years, has delivered Bell 407 to Volusia County Sheriff’s Department. This new Bell 407 is one of three to be used in the Sheriff’s emergency medical and law enforcement air support for all residents of Volusia County. TAS provided an expanded mission-critical customizing and systems integration to support law enforcement as the primary mission, with additional EMS technologies to transport injured personnel. Major technical features included a state-of-the-art law enforcement suite, with moving maps for camera and thermal imaging overlays. Onboard medical technologies include oxygen, air, vacuum and critical care primary life support systems. The TAS paint team also provided a redesigned paint scheme to match the County’s ground units.
“We’re proud to be able to provide services for an organization that protects and saves lives on a daily basis,” said Mike Bashlor, President of Texas Aviation Services. “This new Bell 407 is only one in an ongoing series of Volusia projects in our pipeline. We look forward to a long and successful partnership with them.”
