Precisely - a pretty tidy record if thats the worst incident in 24 years of operations, landing at ad-hoc, unsecured, unprepared, incredibly small sites. No loss of life, no injury sustained by 3rd parties or crew, and something I'm sure they've learnt a lot from. A different picture to other parts of the EMS world, and in one of the most congested operating environments. Keep up the great work.

p.s. aren't the eye witness accounts just amazing - shaking buildings and bowing roof tops, from a 902 lol

p.p.s "The helicopter landed under a shower of metal, its rotor blades mangled, and was grounded for the rest of the day" omitting "The air ambulance was repaired over the weekend and was back in operation on Monday". Cant have been that badly 'mangled'
