Cool

If you want to see a really "interesting" show, watch Medi-copter on German TV. One episode had a pilot transferred from the end of a sling on a Squirrel, to the Medi-copter BK, while it was flying!!! Didn't know you could do that...

I number of years ago there was a program in Oz called "Medivac" I think. In one episode the pilot wouldn't take off due to approaching severe storm (Brisbane in summer) so the paramedic jumped in and started the Longranger, and was about to fly when the pilot finally agreed to carry out the flight. Haven't had that problem with the medical crew yet...

Cheers, and watch out for Ambo's with flying ambitions!
