Collective,
Good luck with the new venture. Mabye the old ''if they can get one, we should get one'' will kick in and this will become a standard requirement, expanding the market.

You should get in touch with Mike from vertical mag., tell him the whole story. I am sure he would love to hear it straight from the horses mouth, besides, he''s a heck of a nice guy to talk too. (Hi Mike! )

While you MIGHT be accused of a bit of overstatement - Paramedics are EMTs with additional training in pharmaceutics and administering them, and the treatment available in a hospital ER is certainly more comprehensive than you''d get from a truckload of Paramedics (neither of which is against Paramedics - I''m proud of my kid who''s one - just to ''set the record straight'') - thanks for enlightening us about your venture, and the best of luck, too!

 

[VERTICAL REF]

hope you have a hell of a tariff rate or a real good standby fee. seems to be such a restricted market to cover with such an expensive helicopter and equipment.

the patch can be quite a cut throat industry...

best of luck though, will be good for the workers in the feild.

hey mike you have obviously not heard about the R22's that started shake block logging in southern saskatchewan yet eh?

 

[MagSeal]

Collective,

I just couldn''t fathom you going into a meeting with the Oil company exec''s to sell your idea, and opening with ''Hi Boys and Girls'' As friendly as it seems, it''s not an appropriate way to address unknown individuals. Apology accepted anyways.
I know the area well where you are planning your venture, but without knowing all your business plans etc, it''d be hard for me congratulate you just yet. I think you''ve got a limited shelf life on your hands personally. And NAC will gear up with a helicopter and give you a run for your money if you show any kind of profit. Good ol'' R.K. gets excited when he smells money or someone cuts into his MedEvac work. Unless of course you are teamed with him now already...

 

[twinstar_ca]

i hadn''t heard either!! what part of south sask and who are the players??

did we import some trees into sask while i was in the hosp?!!?!

 

[Bruised Armpit]

Sounds like my dream job! You could fly Saskatchewan seal hunters in the off season! Think of the possibilities!!!

Mike: I already enjoy a subscription. Worth every penny. Check your PM's

Thanks for the inquiry.
We are moving along with the task of organizing a new company. We all know that takes some time and effort. However, we are good to go for mid July out of Manning airport. The 222 is slated to arrive sometime in the first two weeks of July and we have leased an area at Manning AP for a hanger. We have crews and tech support in place. Contracts are in place.

Just to clear up a few misunderstandings. LifeView MedAir Inc. is not out to take work away from existing service providers. It is our intention to augment any current level of service and offer industry, government and communities a level of service not available at this time. Using this service will be at the descrition of those who make these decisions at industry, government etc. levels. The big difference being an all equiped heli-ambulance with paramedics as opposed to a 205 with a emr. The 205 and the emr will still be used by industry, government etc. however, when the situation requires advanced emergency services, LifeView MedAir is available.

Thank you for the interest. I would be happy to answer any other queries anyone may have.
