French helicopter operator Proteus yesterday took delivery of an Agusta A109 Power and lodged options for four more aircraft with the Italian manufacturer.

Proteus already operates a fleet of four A109s from several bases in France and intends to use this aircraft in an EMS role. Agusta says its A109 can be configured for one or two litters and single or two-pilot operation.

It has large lateral sliding side doors and offers the opportunity to install customised medical equipment.
