Information
SE-JDR was constructed in late-1998 and was delivered to Sweden in February of 1999. It was purchased by Borlänge-based Heliflyg AB and painted in the company’s red-white livery. However, in mid-1999 Heliflyg was acquired by Osterman Helicopter AB and the helicopter became a member of the Osterman fleet. The Heliflyg logo was replaced by an Osterman Helicopter logotype, but the aircraft remained in operation as an aerial works ship.
SE-JDR was later sold to the leasing company Heli-Rent AB and dry-leased to Osterman Helicopter.
In May of 2004, after five years in Sweden, the helicopter was retired from use by Osterman Helicopter and was dry-leased to a company in Spain instead. It was later moved to Norway (LN-OCZ) and finally to the US as N175LF.
