Our students present a scale model of the Dragon helicopter to the Civil Defense Agency

They watch over us and come to our aid—UTBM pays tribute to them!

Yesterday, the “Golden (Orange) Men” of the Civil Security received a model of the iconic Dragon helicopter from mechanical engineering and ergonomics students at UTBM.

More than 800 hours of design and manufacturing work: a collaboration between the expertise of engineers from northern Franche-Comté and that of Civil Protection professionals.

Thank you to the Civil Security delegation led by Pierre-Emmanuel Portheret, Deputy Director of National Resources; Adeline Savy, Head of the Air Resources Group; Denis Parisel; and Julie Moulas for welcoming us at the Ministry of the Interior’s booth during the 128th Congress of French Firefighters.

Congratulations to the UTBM students—Elodie Lutzing, Basile Bourdier, and Clément Braz Afonso—as well as their classmates and their professor, Thierry Rouxel, for participating in this wonderful project!

UTBM was represented at the event by Pierre Lamard, deputy director, and François Jouffroy, director of communications.
