We used to say: "someone's having a very bad day."

[@jamesbillington9280]

that was one smooth landing

[@gmar7836]

That was the perfect Landing

[@LLNCAROLINAS]

Incredible Site to watch

[@firefighting-videos]

Thanks! ❤️

[@BeytekinConstructionMachinery]

I'll share that on a German FB Life Flight channel, K? Take care! Beautiful machine and nice shots!

[@firefighting-videos]

❤

[@Orange1233]

COOL

[@seamanship1203]

Why is there an engine always there for landings?

[@dougmcpherson2966]

In case something goes wrong with the landing. They have immediate fire rescue.

[@JOHNJCLARK]

Crash rescue; static fire, extraction

[@bostonkiter1010]

That was me.

[@Mo-mc6rx]

you?

[@dizzypancreaspump]

Fr?

[@gmar7836]

I would really hate to get that helicopter ride fee on the hospital bill when it arrives in the mail, I can imagine it, staggering

[@kd5you1]

The bill was probably so large that they had to send it via freight. lol

[@mariefoy242]

I was wondering why you fly someone from boston to to rhode island

[@firefighting-videos]

I believe this chopper is owned by a Boston hospital, but I believe it covers that area in Rhode Island? I could be wrong but I believe that’s how it was explained to me.

[@bbashn]

Rhode Island Hospital is a level 1 trauma center. Medflight most likely picked this patient up in a town south of Boston where R.I.H. would actually be closer.

[@bbashn]

@@firefighting-videos Boston Medflight and New England Life Flight both serve Rhode Island. The most likely reason for going to R.I.H. is because that hospital is a level 1 trauma center and the patient was probably picked up in a town south of Boston that was geographically closer to Providence.

[@bbashn]

Most likely the patient was flown from an area south of Boston that is geographically closer to Providence.

[@OhioPalmTrees]

I dont see how that cant be terrible for those engines to just shut down like that with no cool down time.

[@KingXerxesYT]

Rolls Royce engineering. Also there's a fuel intake valve that is closed when the helicopter is shut down, prevents pressure related malfunctions.

[@Sammy_98]

No offense, but civilian pilot. Not military.
