The CAA have just published the standards for exactly that.

I gather there will be a number of HEMS going night ops. I believe East Anglia have announced similarly. All the ones I have heard of so far seem to be really operated by Bond.

I wonder to what extent they will operate in built-up Brum at night? I have not got around to reading the CAA bumph yet, so not aware what limits the CAA will impose in terms of congested areas.
