More Mobile Air/Land Option Chosen for Doctor, Paramedic Response Vehicle

A UK-based medevac company has announced a partnership with PAL-V for the use of their Liberty flying car.

The Liberty combines aspects of an aircraft with the terrestrial mobility of a traditional automobile, providing the best of both capabilities with access to speedy, ubiquitous road infrastructure. The PAL-V will see use as a fast response vehicle, with paramedics and doctors able to arrive on scene faster and more efficiently to begin treatment sooner than any other method.

"Range, payload, and practicality are key factors when considering a flying car for our air ambulance service. The PAL-V Liberty is not just an aircraft, and neither is it just a car - it's both,” said David Polo Marks, Airboss of SkyAngels. “The fact that the aircraft can drive on roads means that it is not restricted by weather conditions and it’s a car that can fly which doesn’t need roads makes it an ideal solution for our emergency response needs, especially in areas where ground infrastructure is limited. We are thrilled to have PAL-V as our partner and look forward to utilizing their unique technology in our operations."

"The reservation of SkyAngels shows their trust in our product, and we look forward to further developing this partnership to make emergency response better,” said Robert Dingemanse, PAL-V CEO. “SkyAngels Air ambulance has a unique use case for the Liberty, which also helps us to develop the business and governmental markets. Besides emergency response, it is also a tool which can be used for coast guarding, border patrol, policing and many more applications."
