Airborne Critical Care, Medical Air TransportAIRCRAFT

Airborne Critical Care, LLC utilizes only dedicated specially configured air ambulances. These aircraft have been converted into full time Flying Intensive Care Units. Some air ambulance services are actually charter services providing medical transports part time when charter flights are not available. They utilize personnel from the local hospital or EMS services that are not trained in aeromedical transport. They cannot perform advanced critical care skills nor have the equipment to be a true critical care team.

Airborne Critical Care, LLC contracts the ICU converted aircraft through Segrave Aviation, Inc. of Kinston, North Carolina. Segrave Aviation, Inc. is one of the largest vendors on the east coast and holds a Platinum ARG rating. All pilots hold ATP ratings and have the highest training and safety standards found in the industry. Segrave Aviation, Inc. maintains operational control of the aircraft while ACC maintains medical control.

Critical Care One is the primary aircraft and is a Mitsubishi MU-300 Diamond-1 Jet aircraft capable of flying over 500mph and for 1100 miles without refueling. Only ATP certified pilots are utilized to fly her. The crew is comprised of two pilots and the Medical Flight Team. We utilize Critical Care One to transport patients throughout the North American Hemisphere. This includes Canada, the United States, Bermuda, the islands of the Caribbean, Mexico, and upper Latin America. Critical Care One is equipped with all the equipment and medications necessary to care for your critically ill or injured patient or loved one during flight for an extended period of time.

Critical Care Two is a Learjet 36A jet aircraft capable of flying over 500 mph for over 2500 miles without refueling. We utilize this aircraft as needed for Transatlantic, Transpacific, or Deep South American flights. Critical Care Two is configured and equipped the same as Critical Care One. It also utilizes the same high standard medical crew.

Critical Care Three is on the drawing boards and is planned for a Beechcraft King Air B200 for regional air ambulance work in North Carolina and the Southeastern United States. ACC is currently pursuing the necessary state and federal regulatory requirements with hopes of having her operational in the winter of 2007.
