Stormypete,

You raise a series of interesting and pertinent points, none of which I can argue with.

It almost seems like the new 'owners' of TCAA (whose rather grandiose byline is now 'saving lives nationwide' ) acquired the dodgy charity to enable them to fundraise on a national level, using the emotive 'children's' moniker to legitimise their activities. But of course no-one would be that devious and scheming, would they? Funny that the 'Air Ambulance Service' have left the AAA. No doubt their 'we're just not understood' message fell on deaf ears amongst the other air ambulance operations. I gather that Midlands Air ambulance have put their position in the public domain. MAAC publicly slams children

What next, a Pet's air ambulance? People will put their hands in their pockets for that, surely? Would help keep a couple of thirsty A109's flying for a bit longer, for sure.
