NPAS has a small fixed-wing fleet consisting of four Vulcanair P68Rs. TFOs still undergo the initial four-week course in a helicopter before being streamed to fixed-wing assets on a slightly modified, longer course due to the aircraft only carrying one TFO in the rear seat

With rotors turning, a TFO waits for the pilot to conduct final checks before taking off. NPAS operates 19 Airbus Helicopters in total: 15 H135s and four H145s

The tactical commander’s position in the helicopter’s rear is the role goal of all TFOs. One of the two displays available can be seen in this view.
