The best possible medical care for patients entrusted to us is always the focus of our missions. For more than four decades, DRF Luftrettung has been committed to state-of-the-art air rescue with innovative solutions in Germany and worldwide. Customers of our academy also benefit from this: our emergency medical training programme for emergency doctors and paramedics is broadly diversified and oriented towards the latest state of science and medical technology.

With a fleet of over 50 helicopters and more than 45 years of flying experience, the DRF Luftrettung has a wide range of flying know-how and state-of-the-art technology. Due to its certification as an "Approved Training Organisation", it can offer training courses to acquire type ratings for various helicopter types. In the courses at our academy, our excellently trained teaching staff pass on their many years of experience according to the latest pedagogical findings - competently and authentically.

For more than 45 years, our helicopters have been taking off safely on their missions - thanks to our employees at the Operation Centre at Karlsruhe / Baden-Baden Airport. Here, our excellently trained technicians repair the aircraft for air rescue, among other things. Extensive experience with a wide variety of types such as H135, H145, EC145, EC135, BK 117 and BO 105 distinguishes the training personnel who work in the Part-147 training facility. From type ratings, general helicopter courses to individual offers - we are happy to share our expertise with you.  

In air rescue, it is necessary to make the right decisions under great time pressure and to ensure efficient processes with the imperative of safety. Transferring these processes to other companies is the goal of the course concepts in the area of management and PD for managers. The DRF Luftrettung has many years of experience in conducting management courses within its own ranks: since 2005, all helicopter crews have undergone "Crew Resource Management Training", which focuses on team building and team processes.
