During the final phase of the Lebanese Civil War, the Puma fleet – now reduced to seven or six helicopters on flying condition – was used in liaison flights with neighboring Cyprus on behalf of General Michel Aoun's interim military government, although fuel shortages and maintenance problems forced their crews to ground them for most of the time until the end of the war on October 1990.
Durante a fase final da guerra civil libanesa a frota de Puma, reducida a seis ou sete aparellos en condición de voo, foi usada en voos de enlace con Chipre en nome do goberno militar provisional do xeneral Michel Aoun, añinda que a escaseza de combustible e os problemas de mantemento obrigaron ás súas tripulacións a mantelos en terra durande a meirande parte do tempo ata o final da guerra en outubro de 1990.
