MED-TRANS


ShandsCair has maintained an existing partnership with Med-Trans Air Medical Transport for many years. That Lewisville, Texas-headquartered company owns and operates the two EC135 aircraft in the program under a hybrid model where they supply the aircraft, pilots, and mechanics under their part 135 certifi cate. They contract with the hospital for medical staff and direction.


The EC155 works under a traditional


model with the same staffi ng and maintenance arrangement provided by Med-Trans, with the exception that the aircraft is owned by UF Health Shands Hospital. Why this remarkable aircraft was chosen, and how it was modifi ed, is worth a closer look.
