“STAT MedEvac-8, STAT Page: Lake West Hospital, destination UHC…”
Maybe sharing the story with others helps me.
Maybe it inspires others to help those who need it the most.
Honestly, I wish that night never happened.
17 years ago.
Back when we launched from Burke…
Back when STAT8 was the highest number…
Back when we were the FNGs…
Back when I had hair…
Keep a watch on all of us Bill and Kelly.
16 years have passed since that terrible morning that N626MB went down.
We lost Flight Nurse Kelly Conti and Pilot Bill Spence.
I bet they are still keeping a watchful eye on all of us.

I see teams are out flying today.
Likely, many more agencies will be spinning up on the ready.
On this Sunday morning, stay safe peeps!
15 years ago. Things were a bit different.
626MB departing with Lead Pilot Joe Mag
Hey Kelly, did you know, I’m still being called “Kaito”?
Kelly and Kaito
While some of our uniforms or missions or jobs have changed, we will never forget.
Glad to have you around Joe P.
Miss you Bill and Kel.
Presenting today at the 63rd Annual Wayne County Fire School (Ohio).
And yes, I get to crack the awesome social media jokes on THE Ohio State University campus.
Lots of Firefighters and Paramedics from all over.
Many familiar faces in the audience too!
Event organizers estimate over 100 attendees with numerous vendors on site including Metro LifeFlight, Cleveland Clinic, and MedFlight of Ohio. Helicopters!
Me? I’m just glad to participate.
Yep, that’s a suit.
Also, kudos to a fellow Firefighter WHFD FF Gary Klaus who was named this year’s Fire School Honorary Dean.
Intro music (GNR’s Paradise City) playing for the afternoon session. #excited.

Dear 117KC & 118WS – please keep an eye on all of us.
MedEvac-8 (626MB) at UHC in 2002
I wish you two were still around.
Thinking of all my old flight crews today.
