Super Puma-Display-Team[edit]

The Super Puma Display-Team only presented the flight characteristics. The demonstration of external load transport, deposition troops, fire-fighting and rescue operations is not part of the display. The advantage of the Super Puma-Display-Team over the flying displays by airplane is that even in heavy cloud cover, the show can be presented. Also the team including helicopter can, before and after the show, by on the ground directly on site and visitors can then go to "rub shoulders". For the flight demonstration Axalp the Super Puma-Display-Team uses a Cougar, this opens up the show with the launch of flares. All pilots of the Super Puma -isplay-Team are professional military pilots, they flywith the Super Puma, Cougar and the Eurocopter EC635 daily. Moreover, they are also often in charge of Search and rescue flights with helicopters equipped with a FLIR of the Swiss Air Force.
