Ambulance
The call from Holland came just after half past two in the morning. The caller said that a team of surgical recovery doctors was about to start recovering a heart from a donor in the De Sionsberg Hospital in Dokkum, a small town in northern Holland. The recipient was waiting in Munich and while Dokkum didn't have an airport, Leeuwaarden, some 20 kilometres away, had a small landing strip. And then the caller got to the point: "When can you take the recovery team and the heart on board and take off for Munich?"
Ambulance flights are time critical
The time between the removal of an organ and transplanting it into a recipient cannot exceed four hours. During this period, organs often have to be transported across huge distances. This is when reliable, efficient flight planning and execution regardless of the circumstances are absolutely crucial, because a heart that is late may cost a life.
When you book an ambulance flight, you book trust
You book trust in the flying skills of the pilots, because he who takes off first is not always fastest. Many other factors play a role: the weather, the flight altitude, the situation at your destination, the time spent taxiing … from boarding a plane at the departure airport to deplaning at the destination a professional cockpit crew can be fully half an hour quicker when flying from Hamburg to Munich than a less experienced crew.JETKONTOR are among Europe's most experienced ambulance fliers
