Christoph 15, Emergency rescue helicopter at St. Elisabeth Hospital, Straubing, Germany
The Airbus H135 helicopter operates daily from sunrise until sunset, providing critical medical emergency response services across a 70-kilometer radius from Straubing.
The station commenced operations on November 17, 1977, with the Federal Border Guard Flight Squadron South managing flights until ADAC Air Rescue took control in 1995.
The medical teams consist of specialists from anesthesiology, surgery, and internal medicine departments at St. Elisabeth Hospital, working alongside ADAC pilots.
The helicopter reaches emergency locations within approximately two minutes of dispatch, bypassing road traffic to deliver medical assistance rapidly.
Since 2018, the helicopter features a rescue winch system that enables approximately 60 specialized rescue operations annually in difficult terrain.
