"Ding...Ding...Ding...."

You have just been toned out on a night flight, weather is marginal at best, you are going to a scene call, the location is in Pender County.....you have four minutes to call airborne from the Hospital Pad.

As you lift...you get a vector....135 at 42miles....

You are single pilot.

Your aircraft has no SAS or Auto pilot.

Drag out your map....in the dark...fly the aircraft....look for traffic...handle the radio....talk to ATC....set up the FM radio to talk to the ground crews at the scene....set up the nav's....oh....and check the "route" for obstacle clearance while you are at it!

Anyone see a small problem in the logic?
