And I do not see a possibility for winch operations while in hover. This could be too close to the side rotors/props.
Additionally, landing on a parking lot between some already parked cars (which I´ve already seen sometiimes in HEMS), also seems more difficult with that "wide body".


Where do I miss the point? Why is AH declaring this concept suitable for HEMS?
