Air ambulance/ Police- winching/ onshore rescue
Does anyone know if UK emergency service helicopters are winch equipped? It seems that although the RAF are providing most of the UK SAR coverage, civilian helicopters worldwide are proving to be excellent rescue assets and are on par with some of the very best military set ups. Would it be a logical step for air ambulances/ Police to become winch capable to provide an onshore capability?
Here in Switzerland they do an outstanding job......
