Ambulance
Aircraft
In
1925, S 21 #4214 had been based at Boden in the north of Sweden for
ambulance transports from remote areas. S 25 #45 got a canopy over the
aft cockpit, which was used as room for a stretcher, and became spare
ambulance for the Junkers F13 which was stationed at Boden in 1928.
Finally, S 25 # 6220 got a heated stretcher space with a high canopy
provided with windows (”the Flying Allotment Cottage”). The exhaust
pipe was lengthened past the stretcher space. This aircraft was used as
a flying ambulace at F 4 at Östersund 1927-1932.
The
photo below shows # 6220 at Malmslätt (F 3) with its
characteristic
water tower. The
aircraft was originally built in the workshops at the same place in
1926.
