| The Citation
Jet aircraft are manufactured by the Cessna Corporation.
These aircraft were designed to meet tough airline specifications,
have a three and a half times better safety record, and are
considered to be the most popular aircraft in the world for
special air medical missions. This spacious, pressurized aircraft
is operated by two co-captains and can accommodate one patient,
up to two family members, the medical team and 200 hundred
pounds of luggage. The Citation also has a full refreshment
center and personal needs facility to offer you the optimum
in comfort and convenience. This aircraft is used for a wide
variety of patient conditions, and due to an overall larger
cabin, it is ideal for those patients who are critical, unstable,
ventilator dependant and/or have numerous IV medications.
Advantages include cost, room for and extra family, and luggage.
Its short field capabilities allow the aircraft to land at
smaller airports located closer to most medical facilities
(thus decreasing the ground ambulance transport times and
charges). Considering these advantages, we feel the Citation
is the most superior air ambulance aircraft available today.
The
Citation II Jet is also manufactured by the Cessna
Corporation. This aircraft is the sister to the Citation.
It offers yet a larger cabin and longer flight range. With
the same outstanding safety record seen with the Citation,
it is also considered to be the most popular aircraft in
the world for medical missions. This pressurized aircraft
is operated by two co-captains and its spacious cabin may
accommodate one or two stretcher patients, up to three family
members, the medical team and several hundred pounds of
luggage. The Citation II's advantage is overall size and
speed without significant increase in costs. This aircraft
also has short runway capabilities and longer range fuel
considerations.
