Popis: | In summary, the USAF possesses a wide variety of aircraft with a proven capability of moving large numbers of patients. Each aircraft used in the AE role has specific strengths and weaknesses as described. While the civil air ambulance industry is highly capable of moving small numbers of patients, their experience with large numbers is limited. Therefore, in the event of a sudden disaster requiring AE of large numbers of patients, the expertise and capability of the USAF (through US Transportation Command) will be required. |
