MRI installation by Kamov helicopter in Bad Ragaz/Switzerland

Due to space limitations in the immediate vicinity, the 4.5 ton magnet for the new Philips MRI scanner of the Medizinisches Institut in Bad Ragaz had to be installed/transported by two heavy lift helicopters - first a Kamov, and secondly a Super Puma of Heliswiss International in Stäfa/Switzerland.

Hell I could have transported that in my S10 and carried it into the hospital on my back.
