Wondering if the instigators of the TCAA were thinking of the above when considering the 76? Using it as a model. Going along the lines of the US healthcare system or down under.

In summary

1) Simon Le Bon : is he putting his name and pocket at risk here if it goes Pete Tong?

2) Is there any whiff of fraud and if so why isn't the Fraud Squad / MIT investigating? On a humorous note are the TCAA a sinister secret organisation out to destabilise the current air ambulance charities in true 007 bad guy style ?

3) is there a genuine need for a dedicated infant / neonatal air transport in the UK? Funnily enough worked with incubator mount for a BO105 and EC135. AFAIK or guess ground transport / transfers are working fine. I could be wrong but then the magic question pops up about how many hospitals have dedicated helipads in UK?

4) if it does take off and doesn't affect the other charities then do we all bite our tongues. Realistically when are we looking at the TcAA aircraft performing its mission?

Cheers
