Cambridgeshire ordered their aircraft long before the s*** really hit the fan with MDHI. Allegedly it may well have cost someone their wings. Anyway a much delayed delivery [recently] has been into better times so lucky them - although they are not entirely clear and home free.
Yorkshire?
Yes spent some money and they will probably buy a second shortly but both were second hand and already over here. The price quoted in the Yorkshire Post for their purchase of their leased machine was shall we say 'extravagent' ... twice what HEMS were being offered for theirs. Therein lies another stoty.
Yes, there will be sales but what we are talking about for the survival of the Explorer are SALES... buying up a couple of old machines is not turning the corner, more like going round a bend!
This is domestic UK internal dealing with no feedback for MDHI. The survival of the type does not actually rely on what one air ambulance charity does week by week. Even Kent AAT's recent tender for new aircraft is thinking outside the box and they have loved their Explorer for as long as most.
Stand back a bit.
