Helicopter Rescue Saves Boy

Just another story of the lifesaving adaptability of helicoters. In this Helicopter Rescue story, the young boy mother who’s life was saved says it best:

“If the helicopter wasn’t there, (Blake) wouldn’t be here. It was one service I never thought I would need and on that day we needed it and it was there. It saved Blake’s life”

After the rescue was over the young boy got the chance to go back and sit in the pilots seat of the hlicopter which flew him to saftey. Maybe we have a new chopper pilot in the making here, who knows?
