IN THIS VIDEO, watch as the New Jersey State Police perform an insertion demonstration with their S-76 over Flying W Airport as part of the airport's Car Show, which was postponed after being affected by the remnants of Tropical Storm Hanna.
Like what you've seen? Well, if you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take time to check out Steve's Airshow World at http://www.stevesairshow.com .
You are correct. N9NJ is used as such.

N9NJ IS setup for Medevac. Otherwise, a good synopsis.

Yes, N9NJ is also a Sikorsky S76. I forgot about that one in the line-up. The sikorsky's are their medevacs, the Bells' are for "other" NJSP jobs- executive transports, surveilance, anything else that that want.

"usmarines911" is partiall correct. The NJSP has 5 Sikorsky S76-B's in their fleet N8NJ, and N9NJ are not for medevac transport. 3 are configured for medevac transport (the one above) "NorthSTAR and SouthSTAR" N1NJ, N5NJ, N7NJ. The landing gear on the S76 choppers are all the same whether for medevac or regular transportation. The NJSP also has Bell 206 Long Rangers N2NJ, N3NJ, N4NJ in their fleet for anything else BUT medevac transport.
