Description

Arlanda Helicopter’s VIP Bell 407 is seen approaching the Old Town Heliport at downtown Stockholm during an executive flight from the archipelago. The silhouette of a well-known landmark, the City Hall (or \'Stadshuset\'), is seen in the background.

The Old Town Heliport is the most central helicopter landing spot in the city of Stockholm. It\'s a 15x8 m concrete pad built on a pair of floating bridges located in the bay between the Old Town and Slussen. The helipad was constructed by Ostermans Aero and was opened by the current Miss Sweden back in April 1975. The heliport is now owned by Arlanda Helicopter and is mostly used for the annual winter-time archipelago operations, supporting the islanders when they\'re isolated by the ice.
