HEMS pics wanted





The Royal Aeronautical Society is producing an information programme for schools showing tasks helicopters can perform.
We've been asked to help by providing photographs of casevacs from a road or railway accident.
A PR opportunity for helicopters shouldn't be missed, so let's help.


Please post pictures here so that we can provide the RAeS with a selection from which to choose.

If you have some pictures and don't know how to post them, let me know and I'll help.

Just remind me how to post an image without having to upload to a URL site first?

Does it have to be UK based?

If not, this is an old favourite and past competition winner:

That Dauphin on the railway tracks appears to have its rear left wheel wedged in between two pieces of track?

It would call for a very precise lift off!

I can't take credit for any of these shots, they are just some that I have collected over the years. I am happy to remove them if the rightful owner rejects to me posting them.

I didn't even ask for the pics but just wanted to say thank you to those who posted. They are absolutely fantastic. If anyone has any advice on the best route in EMS, I would love to hear from them.

Thanks very much

Nick

Looking at some of those shots of G-EHMS, I realise I would probably need many many years of experience to be able to land in those tight confines - major kudos to the pilots

I wonder how different the decisions would have been if it wasn't a NOTAR? I imagine there is a little less to worry about with a 902.

NASUS,

Send a pm to heliport, I'm sure he'll be only too happy to help.

I would imagine he's tucked up in his bed by now seeing as it's 00:46 in the UK

Regards

Jim
