These pictures are from this morning. The Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center Life Lion helicopter was on display, for Child's Dream Weekend, sponsored by West End Fire and Rescue in Shippensburg, PA. The kids listened to the pilot, nurse and paramedic talk about what it is they do and how, inside these cramped quarters, they do that. They explained that they can do anything an ambulance can do, they just can't stand up. They showed the children inside the helicopter and answered all their questions. The boys were especially impressed that with the proper tailwind the normal 180 mph can get to 230 mph. Near the end of the program the phone rang, they cleared the kids and they were gone. But not before thrilling everyone with a flyover.
