Troglodita & Matthew,
In the pursuit of a ballanced argument I have to say that having read the earlier post regarding being thanked by the families of the people whose lives he saved, I immediately assumed he was talking about his EMS flying.
I don't think he was bragging abut saving people whose lives he had put at risk by knowingly flying them into unsafe conditions.
That having been said I believe he is now aware that the rules and regulations pertaining to employment in this field are far more complicated and stringent on this side of the Atlantic than he had envisioned.
