Eleven helicopters, including an AgustaWestland AW139 and Airbus H135, were deployed to rescue 280 people stranded by severe flooding in Valencia, Spain, following Storm Adam. Crews winched residents, including a baby and several children, from rooftops and higher ground as flooded roads prevented access. The operation involved maritime rescue, military, police, and emergency aviation personnel, including Avincis. More than 400mm of rainfall caused rivers to overflow, leaving communities isolated and requiring helicopters to deliver assistance where ground teams could not reach.

A Leonardo AW139 HM Coastguard helicopter winched an injured man from cliffs near Auchencairn, Scotland, on 17 October, before he was transferred to an air ambulance for transport to hospital in Glasgow.
