I can't fault his career path, RAF SAR to HEMS. He obviously loves rotary.
Having worked with RAF winchmen, he's bound to be able to put up with HEMS paramedics. I wonder if his crews will be allowed to 'bark' in response to any bumpy landings he might make? (barking as in 'waking the corgis').
Hope to met him in a field, next year.
(He'll easily recognise our helicopter; it's the safer to land one with no tail rotor and the simple fuel pump system.)
