Don't judge all the EMS pilots by a couple of vocal crackpots. It's time we all take a good look at ourselves before pointing fingers at others. We are in the "service" industry of EMS and it is very solid with professional aviators.
The critical authors on this website who make negative comments about $9.00 p/h FBO Robinson pilots by comparison to the professionals they fly with daily in the EMS industry are only reflecting on their own shallow means and justification for being in the business.
If you truly are professionals as you claim, then shut the f**k up and act like one by supporting every EMS worker including the pilots that so graciously haul your sorry ass from point A to B.
No, I'm not an EMS pilot. I'm married to one who's been doing this far longer than most of you have been breathing. And, YES, the pilots in the EMS industry have been underpaid for years. It's about time these companies start complying with the Federal Wage & Hour Law. Everyone else has to, why not them?
