Re: Sirens on air medical helicopters

[JECFRN@aol.com]

I think it dates back to the origins of civilian air medical helicopter service in the 70's, i.e.: 
If a ground ambulance needs a siren, then an air medical helicopter ambulance must need a siren. 
Kind of like the old days of cars when someone had to walk in front of the car with a red flag to prevent the horses from being scared. 
I know that Nevada dropped the siren requirement 20 some years ago and thought all other states had done the same.
Just a few cents worth. Thanks
