npub1ahr266p3p02mhcn5lcy06gnflphey4ardz5weh4s85eq5etm2vfqrtm294 (npub1ahr…m294) my point is that ten miles isn't much quicker by helicopter than by vehicle. That being so, how much is the saving worth? We also have the issue that by no means all hospitals are equipped to take helicopters, so a road ambulance might need to go ten miles when a helicopter needs to go forty. In Alberta a helicopter travelling a hundred miles is going to save three or four hours over a road ambulance - that makes a significant difference to outcomes. UK might be only 10 minutes.
