I don’t see anything that this jetpack can do that a helicopter with a rescue hoist can’t do, and do much safer.
God help the pilot if even one of those multiple hobby-grade jet engines flames out.
Agreed. Only in the most contrived of scenarios can you come up with something a jet pack paramedic could do that a "regular" paramedic and helicopter crew couldn't do.
As a plus, the helicopter option also means a basket and the ability to extract the vicim(s). As another plus, when not in use for paramedic / rescue missions there are a number of other reasonable things a helicopter could be used for. To me the jet pack looks like a toy looking for an excuse to exist - other than it is obviously a heck of a lot of fun to fly around with.
