Past Life Lion helicopter retires from Air Medical Ops

March 28, 2023

Cool story about N365SJ, once operated by Penn State Health Life Lion, and two other older dauphin helicopters from Mercy Health Life Flight Network in Toledo, Ohio. Dave Sparks (Heavy D), an American entrepreneur, custom vehicle builder, and social media personality from Salt Lake City, Utah, recently purchased N365SJ, N293SV and N93SV from Mercy Health.

With the sale of these helicopters, Mercy Health Life Flight has downsized from 4 bases to 2 bases, leaving LF2 at Fulton County Airport and Life Flight 4 at Sandusky County Airport. Reports are that they will be adding another A109 this summer to go with the 3 existing A109s in their fleet: N91SV, N63SV and N95RZ.
