The original plan for the winch fit on the YAA H145s was to undertake something akin to a long-line lift of patients in remote, difficult to access, locations.

The specific need was always going to be low and training would be a low priority.

Lifts and lowering were not part of the plan partly because of the cost.

Things might have changed but there is no evidence they have.
