air angels crash

[Kimberly Harrell]

What about this....at the Safety Summit in Dallas a few months ago they showed statistics that said there has never been a crash with two pilots on board. I say require two pilots. Not cost effective? In my mind it is worth it. Why aren't we requiring night vision, TAWS, etc. Minimum aircraft requirements? How about clear guidelines (criteria) for flying versus ground based solely on patient condition. How about review and penalties for unwarranted flights? Just a few of my thoughts. Sorry but this is getting scary! Today I spent time wondering, was the Maryland pilot possibly one of the great guys who taught water egress at AMTC? Was this crew today at any of the conferences I went to this year? Was I having fun with them recently and now they are gone? Will we be soon at one crew a month killed? Count the patient and we can be at one person a week! better odds than the lottery.
