The crew seem to treat it as a serious business rather than a fun palace for geriatrics. For which approach I thank them!<br /><br />MartinFlabmeisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934077052437339591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8445111183007833890.post-11621544145327285582012-07-02T05:52:55.912+10:002012-07-02T05:52:55.912+10:00Denis

Most of that was the medical team getting from the hospital to the helicopter base. It was only a 5 minute flight to the hospital.<br /><br />The business was made easier by the pilot knowing exactly where we were as he rides his mountain bike along the track we were using. <br /><br />MartinFlabmeisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934077052437339591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8445111183007833890.post-55154658528803094002012-06-28T01:37:19.497+10:002012-06-28T01:37:19.497+10:00Nice work, Martin.
