Depends on the region and terrain. Pc12, King Air, Challenger 604. Used to operate the Hawker 800XP but the door is too narrow so you have to remove the over-wing exit to get a stretchered patient in. It does a great job though. A qualified medical team will know what equipment you need. Are you setting an operation up, it's pretty vital you know what you're doing.

What's a "Regular" air ambulance sortie? How many patients? What sector length? Emergency or just patient transfer? Picking up from a runway or un-improved strip? What are the local regulations applicable on single V multi-engine?

In other words, your question is far to vague. The answer could be a C210, or a C130 depending on the particular missions you are targeting.
