As I was shaving this morning, an advertisement on the radio nearly made me gash my neck. A local HEMS operation (run as a non-profit by a consortium of hospitals, I believe) runs an occasional ad urging the listener to pay a flat-rate annual fee that will cover the cost of an EMS transport that they might need. An insurance of sorts. But, I was surprised when this ad went on to tell how the pilots are now flying with NVGs to make their ops safer.
