Cheers To Pitt Lake Crew

[Ryan]

Just a quick thanks to the guys working in the Pitt Lake area today. We had a medivac flight in the area and had a guy (Bell medium driver?) offer his assistance as he had a medic on board. As we had 2 with us it wasn't needed, but very cool to hear a guy busy working another job offer his help! Kinda made my day, never had anyone in the air offer to help us before.

 

Wanted to throw our thanks out in case he is a visitor to the forum.:up:

You are welcome. You folks on the Air Ambulance do a great job. I used to do the flight attendant thing many moons ago.

 

If you are the same crew that was on duty on Friday morning , we met at the fatal MVA at 28 and 200 street in Langley. The S76 got into a small field beside the pump house and after extracting the patient who was not petite, we only had to drive about 50 feet to your landing site.

 

I was thinking light for you as you verticalled out of the hole with our patient and your crew.

I hope you get the C+'s soon.

 

I wish (except for the fuel burn rate) that it was a Bell Medium, but alas it was only us in our private R-44 going glacier climbing farther up the valley.

Yup that was us (me at least) at the Langley accident on Friday. Thanks for thinking light thoughts... machine clawed it's way up and out of the hole a lot easier than we'd expected

I was the Medium driver, it wasn't me offering help - my bucket wouldn't have done much! (though I'd have helped if I could)But I wanted to thank both you guys for your airmanship. It's been a really busy airspace with lots of surprise cessnas in the area, and your professionalism made getting fuel for the next cycle a lot easier. Thanks!

Glad we didn't get in your way, but enjoyed watching ya work from the ground while we waited for the medics
