I was totally impressed. I am a retired US Military Helicopter pilot (26+ years, Blackhawks (Medevac 15+ years and 8 years Air Assault). In addition, I was a Los Angeles County Emergency Paramedic from 1972 thru 1979. When I retired I flew Civilian EMS helicopters. I really had a Blessed Career and Life, In the Military, I was an Instructor Pilot and Instrument Flight examiner and retired with over 7,000 flight hours. There is one thing that this video reminded me of that I hated about the job. All of the annual flight evaluations and Instrument evaluations. I could not tell you how many I did in over 35 years and even though I was a helicopter evaluator I still hated the examinations. They were all self-induced stress makers and all helicopter pilots know exactly what I am talking about. That is one reason I was such a good evaluator. I knew exactly what the pilot I was evaluating was going thru and what he was feeling. In my years of flying I did fly with some real dickhead evaluators as all pilots have. I never could figure out why they had to be Az Holes, it was not necessary!!! I got to fly in Germany for 5 years and it was some of the best flying I ever did. I was stationed in (spelling) Gablingen, just North of Augsburg in Southern Bavaria west of Munich. I would return to Germany is a heartbeat, I use to be able to speak German but now I think I could only order food. The 145 is an awesome looking helicopter.

The funny thing is I learned more watching free KZread documentaries than i did in school. I am obsessed with watching documentaries and there is no shortage of them on KZread, i am pretty much set for life.😆

Flown this, the smaller EC135, and the Bell 429 for air Ambulance services across the Carolinas.. I love the H145 it is so easy to fly and extremely comfortable and quiet. I currently fly a Bell 429 though. Also a very fun and maneuverable aircraft. But none of them are nearly as fun as the MD500 "little bird". Lol 😆

Incredible insight into the creation of an amazing vital piece of equipment which is only half the finished package, add the well trained and hightly motivated crew it then becomes one of, if not the most vital, pieces of equipment known to man in this modern high tech world. Thank you for this Free Documentary and everybody go out and support your local air ambulance...........they need you !!!!!!!!!

I almost talked a US Navy pilot into letting me jump and rescue swim. He was cancelled out by the mechanic. I think this is one of the most thorough documentaries on the helicopters that get things done and defy life and death. Congratulations! Did make it onto a crash tender at the same Naval Air Base.

there all hero's in my eyes life saving people using high technology and risking there own lives what a incredible team !

'We have to really concentrate, there are 20 kilometres of cable in here.' So, kindly sod off and let me concentrate? :P

I had a motorbike accident a few years ago and I was airlifted to a major London hospital. I was also GCS 3 and they incubated me at the scene as I was VERY poorly ☹️ The couple that saved my life on the scene before any of the ambulances turned up was a couple from Germany. They'd come over to the UK for a holiday and they'd been on English soil for less than an hour before they came across me. There were people already around me but as soon as they turn up n see what's going on. They grabbed the crash bag out of the back of their car n started to work on me. I was quite lucky tbh as he was a surgeon and she was an anaesthetist and if it wasn't for them. I'd of bleed out on the road. Someone was already talking to the 999 and she took the phone n gave them load's of medical info about myself. When I read the HEMS report, I'd of put a lot of money down (and I've never bet in my LIFE!) that I'd be deal. I did talk to them a few times over Christian and sent flowers. But they've moved on now, as they've got a kid. So is it law that you need to have a crash bag in the back of your car if your a medical Dr, Prof, paramedic, etc? As I'd love to know as I think everyone should as it must save a lot more lives, mine included 🙂

I'm an EMS provider in Texas in the United States. We are not required to carry medical supplies when off-duty and technically, we are only supposed to do what a civilian would do on scene when off-duty. However, I carry a full trauma bag with me and many of the providers I know do as well. I have personally used mine many times over the years, including one time when I placed a tourniquet on the leg of a man who's leg had been severed in an automobile accident. He surveyed because I had my kit with me.

Flew on their predessors. The Messerschmitt- Blohm-Bokow-Kawasaki's. (Mom was born and raised in Germany/Czechoslovakia during wwII. My aunt married a Messerschmitt-. Uncle Hans had nothing to do with aircraft but was interrogated after the war) BK 105's and 117's. Definitely well suited for scene intervention. Another agency had sikorskys. IMHO, ok for hospital to hospital transports with established lz's, but the gear (vs skids), and size, sure posed issues. We had a few stuck in fields before the agency changed their lz sops. Still love hearing the distinct thrum of those ships--- (I like the Augustas too)

Good job. No unbearable reality television-style artificial drama. It is, however, pronounced H-one-four-five.

3am watching rescue helicopters. Why not

Thought the wiring straight into the air frame, must be time consuming with 20km of cables. Must be a way, a simple jig to place all the cables and terminate each cable on a bench would be simpler and faster. Then offer it up to the frame and fit.

Fair play to all. Great loiking herky birds.
