Medical Helicopter Crashes
“Those dying have included patients, nurses, doctors, technicians and pilots. Medical helicopter crashes had been frequent in the early 1980’s but then tapered off until the last decade, during which the frequency increased to a peak of 18 deaths in 2004… One does need to consider the risks of alternative transport as well. Certainly there are ambulance crashes. But they are not nearly as frequent as helicopter crashes.” by Dr. Bradley Truax
