Christoph 9, Rescue helicopter in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
The Christoph 9 helicopter operates from the Duisburg Professional Association Accident Clinic, providing emergency medical services within a 50-kilometer radius of its base.
The rescue service began operations on September 16, 1975, initially recording 83 missions per year before reaching a peak of 1,276 missions in 2007.
The helicopter's name follows the German tradition of naming air rescue services after Saint Christopher, the patron saint of travelers.
The three-person crew includes a federal police pilot, a doctor from the Duisburg Accident Clinic, and a technical crew member from Duisburg Fire Department.
Through the Euregio cooperation established in 2003, the helicopter performs cross-border missions into the Netherlands, expanding its service beyond German territories.
