Ok Guys, reality check time.
I'm sorry, but intubating is an extremely demanding and difficult skill at the best of times, let alone side on in a HEMS aircraft.
Pilots may think it easy and indeed some big-balled Paramedics may say its easy, but lets stick with the facts.
Its not easy at the best of times, doesn't alway go right and I defy anyone to listen for breath sounds after an intubation on a helicopter ! Capnography is wonderful, if you have it !
