Description: An air ambulance, part of the new fleet of 10 AgustaWestland AW139's being rolled out across the province, practices touch and goes on the runway of the Lindsay airport on Thursday, June 9, 2011 beyond a parked older version of the helicopter, the Sikorsky S-76. The operators included "pilot number one" on the new craft, who was working towards filling his required training hours, said Lindsay Airport manager Derrick Nauss. The first three new Ornge choppers, considered a significant upgrade from the aging Sikorsky S-76, were first unveiled at Toronto's island airport last September. They will cost $130 million.
