Agusta AW139

The Agusta AW139 is a highly popular medium lift twin-turbine helicopter. It can be configured for roles ranging from military use, to VIP, to a utility configuration that is popular with operators flying to the offshore oil platforms as it can carry up to 15 passengers. N139CH is seen here after being cleared to taxi into position and hold prior to performing a rolling takeoff on KSQL's Runway 30 at San Carlos, California.
