You clearly don't understand how a LE helicopter operation or any manner of the depart. We do not make money! Ultimately we lose every year. Public aircraft? Yes. We comply with everything 135 requires and then some.

I can only speak for my state to say we never move people from hospital to hospital. This is a service our sheriff does not allow. People actually die because HAA is OOS for whatever; often. But we do not compete.

Now then, zero HAA operators can hoist, HEC or otherwise rescue within 200 miles. We do. And we are busy.

It's never competition just service which is what it's about right? Lives not lost not money?

Taxpayer money isn't an open check. Here most revenue goes to damn near everything but LE.
