Night Air Ambo's

The UK/CAA does allow medical night flights, always have for the coastguard, RAF and Navy SAR. They have the right kit and crew composition in the aircraft but the charity funded air ambo's are generally single pilot VFR day ops.

I agree that the US NIGHT accident rate for HEMS ops is unacceptable and that is what the UK CAA is trying to prevent.
