Baby delivered on board Pawan Hans chopper on medical evacuation flight
In the second such case this month, a baby girl was delivered on board an aircraft – this time a Pawan Hans helicopter, which was operating as a medical evacuation flight from Agati in Lakshadweep to Kochi, Kerala.
In a statement, the state-owned helicopter operator said that the baby was delivered while its aircraft was at an altitude of 2,000 feet.
Earlier this month, a baby was delivered on board an IndiGo flight operating on the Delhi-Bengaluru sector. “The moment is added to a truly remarkable journey of Pawan Hans, a civil helicopter company serving the nation since 1985 having more than million of flying hours in the sky and over 2.5 million landings since inception,” the company stated.
