It would be interesting to see the risk assessment that would no doubt have been done at the time.
It would indeed. No mention of what the incoming flight was for. The use of Medivac helicopters in the US is out of control. Seems 50 % of operations are non critical patient transport from facility A to facility B.
We had a crash in CO a few years ago in a hospital parking lot. The chopper was headed to a demo at a Boy Scout Camp.
