In two weeks from now, on 29 and 30 August, the Aeroseum Aviation Museum is hosting a unique helicopter event in Gothenburg. The Helimeet 2015 joins the Swedish rotary wing community in a two-day all-helicopter event at Säve Airport in Gothenburg. This tribute to Swedish helicopter history is the first fully dedicated helicopter air show in Sweden in many years, and it will treat its visitors with a wide range of interesting aircraft. The main star(s) of the weekend will be two retired HKP4 Vertol 107s, and the plan is to do ground-runs of at least one of them.
Some of the expected airborne participants are:
- AW139 SAR Swedish Maritime Administration
