Quotes

"The Chinook helicopter's cabin provides 42m³ of cargo space and can accommodate two HMMWVs."
"This was a complex rescue mission and our Airmen rose to the occasion," said Col. Steven Butow, 129th RQW commander.   "I could not be prouder of our Airmen’s efforts to save this passenger."
...and we are the only company in the marketplace today able to provide this capability,' said Dwayne Starnes, LifePort's Director of Operations. "By the end of September 2013, the U S Air Force's HH-60G fleet will be equipped with ballistic armor seat pallets that will greatly enhance crew safety."
"Typically we fly the helicopters, look for people in distress and assist them," LeBlanc said. "If there's flooding associated with this storm and there are people who need assistance, we can fly to them and use our helicopters to fly them out of danger and into a safe area."
