Do you want to quote stats that actually show how many lives are saved by air ambulances?
There are plenty for the RNLI.

There are plenty for air ambulances. Only a ****ing moron would attempt to
suggest by sneering that the stats are either hard to find or non-existent.


The Air Ambulance Service Annual Situation Audit shows 24 helicopters, an
average of 857 lives saved per helicopter per year, so 20,568 lives per
year.

Are you planning to stop stealing oxygen anytime soon pennis?

I would further point out that there are only around ten or twelve
spinal injury centres in the whole of the UK and Ireland. Availability
of helicopters to transfer patients from scenes of accidents, or other
units, to these specialist units is inherent in the justification for
having so few.
