A beautiful but cold night tonight with the added challenge of snow on the ground.

Sometimes it’s only after you land that you realise what looked OK from 500 feet is actually a bit of a jungle.

This low pressure 958 is what is colloquially known as a “zebra’s arsehole”.

This is me trying to negotiate with a bull. It’s a good reminder to avoid landing in fields with livestock.

We had a really busy day yesterday, responding to 5 jobs across the county and Island. Transported 2 patients by air to hospital. It’s not often that I fill a page on my knee board. Thankfully midday was free for lunch.

Had a new question tonight from a bunch of interested kids that I haven’t had before… “how do dead legs work”?

The kids were disappointed to hear that the helicopter wasn’t a new addition to the playground.

The risks of sloping ground landings! Identifying sloping ground from the air can often be impossible to see. The tail has much reduced clearance due to the rising ground behind the aircraft.
