The lucky winners of a ride with Wings!


Rachel and Scott were the lucky winners of the ride with Wings. The pilot demonstrated the aerobatics of the Bell 407.

WINGS!



Wings lands at Appalachian Ski Mountain.


On Feb 9, 2006 Wings and Appalachian Ski Mountain hosted an Aeromedical Evacuation and Ski Medicine and Rescue Training. Safety around helicopters was discussed then the crew introduced critical care aeromedicine. Two lucky EMIG members were allowed to ride in the Bell 407 with Wings. The Ski patrol then showed some special equipment and techniques unique to outdoor medicine/rescue. We then enjoyed the slopes at Appalachian Ski Mountain and dinner at the Parthenon in Boone, NC.
