D-HNWP BK-117 of the Police Helicopter Unit NRW ( North Rhine-Westphalia ) had there annual water-rescue training on the Rhine-River. This was the first training day, when two MBB BKK-117 and one EC-155 in cooperation with Police Divers were training a so called "Kufenrettung" which is a rescue with the skids, and the helicopter entering the water when approching the diver or the person who will be rescued! It was the first time I could myself witness this kind of rescue, and I pay my deep respect all aircrews and even the police divers for there great professionalism - well done guys! (mehr von D-HNWP)
