Switzerland was one of the first countries Kamov Ka-32 was presented in early 90-s. Tremendous heavy-lifting opportunities surprised the potential customers while working in extreme conditions in Alps helping to recover an infrastructure after the hurricane. The possibilities of the Ka-32 were well above it’s “western” competitors. Some operators, including Canadian ones, were very much interested in it. The Heliswiss continue the operation of the EASA certified version Ka-32A11BC. The FSIT is helping to keep the safe operation of the fleet.
