Patient was 6ft 2 in. Didnt go in ambulance. Went in the responders car!

902 has room for 8ft 6in. patient. (6ft 6in, if 2nd medic has to attend to the airway)

(Lincs/Notts was available but Amb Control thought it was a Derbyshire postcode.)


apparently (according to the launch day press release) one of the reasons the Augusta was better was that it could take "an additional patient", compared, presumably, to the local 902's or 135's !
