EC130 as an EMS / SAR machine?
Greetings all,

Looking for some 1st hand information please.

Contemplating a/c for a combined EMS / SAR role and we are looking favorably at the EC130. We are definitely looking at single engine only and like the very roomy cabin / wide body of the 130. Would love feedback from actual users in these types of configurations.

Does anyone winch out of them? If so, left side like the 350's? And therefore any C of G problems?

I know AirMethods do an impressive EMS single stretcher kit. Any other fits that are used or prefered? And has anyone operated 2 stretcher as the Eurocopter info suggests?

Thanks for any and all input. Fly safe.

Integrity.
