Capt tosspot, I agree with you bar one point. 902 ain't slow I followed one the other day and he was quite happy at 135 odd knots with 5 POB. Thats not shabby at 1000 ft or so( I know they had 5 pob from his call to ATC) So given it was cold (ish) about 8 deg and he had 5 POB and was at 1000 ft, I assume he had enough fuel for about an hour or so( I wont say which air ambo it was) but he was about 50 NM from home en route to a hospital, I think that is pretty quick.
