Wisk Air Helicopters has added a lighter, faster and more durable utility bird to its fleet.
The Thunder Bay aviation company showcased its new Bell 412 helicopter to the local media on April 24.
The company claims the $4-million aircraft is one of 12 of its kind in Canada and available for firefighting operations, hydro servicing and First Response missions.
Wisk Air president Mark Wiskemann has eyes on using it to support remote mining operations.
