    When I got my emergency doctor training in 2006 we were taught about the intricacies and implications of involving a helicopter as means of rescue. For example what limitations the cramped space and the noise level onboard put on the treatment of patients. The most surprising part for me was that especially in densely populated areas the helicopter will often be used as a transport for the doctor without actually planning to also transport the patient afterwards. The radius of operation the helicopter has just increases the flexibilty to dispatch doctors and serves a fill-in function for limited availabilty of ground-based emergency doctors´ cars.

    As a helideck landing officer on offshore vessels I can confirm people that dont really know hand signals, confuse the pilots more than anything else, every time ive guided people through the procedure and allowed them to take control of the deck the pilots have been like " I landed up landing it without really even watching that guys hand signals"

    Note to Editor... for Interviews take each audio from each person and copy and paste a second audio and link together to become stereo... (hope this helps)...

  • @stepanvopat2162
    @stepanvopat2162 Год назад +9

    Hello Joe! Czechoslovak than Czech and Slovak HEMS flights are still using Call sign "Kryštof", wich apparently follows ADAC utilizing name of patron saint.
    I do believe Austria uses similar.
    In Czechoslovakia was call sign assigned to base and Czech Republic kept the sequence so we do have gaps in numbering (Kryštof 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 13, 15, 18).

    • @Quickstep80
      @Quickstep80 Год назад +4

      Austria does have "Christophorus" helicopters, operated by ÖAMTC Flugrettung, with ÖAMTC being an ADAC affiliate. However, some other Austrian HEMS providers use different callsigns for their rescue helicopters. "Heli Austria" air ambulance has chosen "Martin" for their HEMS choppers with St. Martin being the patron saint of beggars and the poor (people in need), "Schenk Air" operates their rescue helicopters under the callsign "Robin" (derived from Robin Hood, who also gave to the poor), Wucher Helicopter chose "Gallus" as their helicopter callsign (Gallus being the first name of the founder when it originally started out as a mason company before establishing helicopter operations for construction and HEMS in the 1970s), Schider Helicopter Services calling their ambulance helicopters simply "Heli" and ARA Air Rescue using "ARA" or "RK" respectively, depending on the base's medical cooperation partner (RK for "Rotes Kreuz" = red cross).

    I am 70 years old Captain Joe, but I still love aviasjon. This was a great wideo! They're doing a great job, and we have the same system in Norway. You are a comersial pilot, but good luck with your helicopter education! The best from me! 🙂(I flew the C-130 in the military many years ago)

  • @gl7662
    @gl7662 Год назад +7

    Thought I'd add my 2 cents... I got my commercial helicopter pilot licence over 20 years ago, but never made it as a pilot. 100% guarantee, the hardest part of being a helicopter pilot is getting a job after the training, not the training itself. It's probably easiest the younger you are, as you will not have become used to a certain lifestyle. Also you are less likely to be tied down to a location, and less likely to be committed to someone. Both of those things will make it difficult for you to commit to being a pilot. You will need to be very mobile.

    Never flew, but I did Volunteer Fire & EMS over 20 yrs. & was so thankful to have helicopter Med-Evac Service. They had a pilot, Medic & RN but once they brought a Trauma Surgeon to do an amputation; but we were able to cut off the brake pedal and they transported the pt. with the pedal in her foot & ankle. Unfortunately she died during surgery.

      I’m not sure what you mean? Send you a telegram? This feeds into why I’ll never pilot anything more than a car & that’s up to my wife. Lol! Yes, the App, I do understand but after just cleaning up from having an app, phone # and email hacked I’m extremely cautious about adding any more apps. Besides … talking with Capt. Joe ,just the offer is quite an honor, seriously. I think I’ll just try to stop commenting now that I’m retired. Peace, Steve

  • @moiraatkinson
    @moiraatkinson Год назад +2

    Great comments from everyone. I’m very happy to see any new Captain Joe video, whether about helicopters or 747 tyre changing. The videos are so watchable and every single one is professionally put together. I look forward to Joe becoming a Captain and I’d certainly be interested in learning more about helicopters 😊. I’m not surprised they don’t want hand signals from untrained bystanders - heavy goods vehicles don’t even want car drivers trying to use the headlight signals they make to interact with other HGV drivers. They can’t be certain a bystander knows what they’re doing and they’d be responsible if an incorrect signal from such a person caused them to damage the aircraft or a person while landing. The most extreme place I’ve seen a helicopter land was at the coast while on a run. A Sea King was picking up an injured walker and it was parked in the rocks, with the tail sticking out over the sea.

    Here in the UK. They're are called "helimed-(number)" eg helimed-99.
    Gives me a little similar mind set what the pilot & crew gose through.
    But piloting a helicopter alone is multitasking in its self. Let alone just navigate & throttle + yoke.

    You should have changed this to 2-channel mono instead of leaving the voices on opposite sides. It is actually really distracting on headphones with this completely separated stereo sound.

  • @MrTrazz09
    @MrTrazz09 Год назад +2

    On a typical EMS system(Emergency Medical Services) its always the ground based responders will arrive at the scene first typically an ambulance, fire truck and police..then upon assessment of the situation, if needed they will now call on air rescue services. (Air ambulance, air cranes, aerial firefighting etc.

    Thanks a lot, very interesting. I would love to know how the high voltage line detection at night works, since that is just super scary, because they are almost invisible and one touch with the rotor blade will most likely disintegrate the aircraft, killing everyone on board, because of imbalance and these línes are usually along highways where the accidents happen.

    Hello Captian Joe, I’m a great fan of your RUclips channel and like the explanations you described about all topics.
    However there is one thing I can’t understand why this is useful for, namely:
    If a helicopter is on a airport, civil or military, they often need to taxi like airplanes towards their spot where they are allowed to take off. What’s the use of it? Why not say to them “go ahead” and take of from the place their where stationed?
    Thank you for reading my question.
    Regards, Luc

    • @chrisr8996
      @chrisr8996 Год назад +1

      A lot of times we get to do that, all depends on the location of the landing pad, traffic at and around the airport and things like aircraft weight and wind direction (read: downwash blowing over smaller aircraft).

    Video production quality wise, the audio left-right balance is not in the correct ratio, Jen is sitting on the right but the most of his audio volume is coming from left and vice versa for Joe. This can be adjusted in post production by the editor, taking note on the audio will improve the video significantly.

      From a heli flight instructors perspective I can tell you it's usually much, much harder for the FW guys to convert to rotary than the other way around, there's a lot of habits FW pilots have to actively un-learn first in order to fly choppers, from the miniscule cyclic control inputs needed to things like never pushing your stick forward (esp. during an engine failure).

    Hello Joe, I have one question, as someone who has no previous helicopter experience (only planes) where would I turn to get into this kind of work?

      A helicopter flight school. You really have to relearn about everything flight wise. After that you could try flying for basic a to b flights.

    A helicopter needs 800 meters of visibility? Why?
    Isn't a 747, 500 meters?

    • @-TobsA-
      @-TobsA- Год назад +5

      Only an emergency helicopter need the 800 meters of visibility. They are flying low to the ground, so you need the visibility to detect power lines or wind turbines.

      @@-TobsA- that makes 100% sense.
      I was more referring to when he said they won't even take off with less than 800m of visibility. Seems like an excessive rule when all you have to do is go up. Especially since your emergency landing zone may be an hour away where their may be clear sky's. Of course theirs exceptions.
      still very interesting facts nonetheless.

      @@411Adidas here in Germany we have a really dense net of the emergency helicopters. So in the most cases you landing side is not more than 10 minutes of flight time away. So in the most cases if you don't have 800 meters at your base you also don't have 800 meters at your lading spot.
