Paradigm Aerospace Corporation (PAC) International recently delivered an upgraded Airbus EC135P2+ for Life Fight Network. PAC removed the aircraft’s corporate VIP interior and factory avionics and installed a complete Metro Aviation medical interior and Garmin GTN 650/750 Single Pilot IFR Avionics suite. The interior and exterior of the aircraft were also completely repainted to match the Life Flight Network fleet.

“We have enjoyed working with the staff at Life Flight Network. They are a new customer to us, and we look forward to working with them on future projects,” said Ed Wahl, Director of Maintenance for PAC.
