In 1990/91 I was involved with the evacuation of the Red Cross and patients from Khartoum,Sudan,Mogadishu and other African cities during my two years down there. The feeling of helping get these folks away from danger or to a hospital was one of the most gratifying times during my flying career. I was however paid for it but I also had the choice not to put myself in danger should I wish. I couldn't say no. Made me proud to be a Canadian as I found out after we got the Red Cross from Khartoum to Nairobi that several of them were also fellow Canucks. Any Pilot that's involved with medivac should be proud.
