The CH-146 Griffon of 439 Combat Support Squadron, a variant of the Bell 412EP, rescue demonstration at the Bagotville International Airshow. The role of a Combat Support Squadron is to provide an immediate response to aircraft emergencies for operational squadrons flying out of 3 Wing Bagotville. As a secondary role, the Squadron can be called on to augment search and rescue (SAR) operations in the region, tasked by the Joint Regional Co-ordination Centre.
The squadron’s crews train continually in order to ensure an extremely high level of proficiency and this often means training with outside agencies like the Canadian Coast Guard, CASERA/SERABEC or local police. The squadron is only able to reach this level of proficiency thanks to the tireless support of its maintenance personnel who are dedicated to keeping the mighty CH-146 flying.
439 Combat Support Squadron’s crews, maintainers and aircraft are also often tasked with supporting Operation LENTUS in the event of domestic natural disasters necessitating the Canadian Armed Forces’ assistance.
This SAR demonstration was conducted at the Bagotville International Air Show in La Baie, Saguenay, Quebec, Canada, on July 23, 2024.
