ACADIAN AIR MED SERVICES

In response to inquiries from association members, we contacted Acadian asking for guidelines for emergency service to Lake Mary.

We have put instructions, coordinates, flares, etc in a white mailbox with a Red Cross + on it. The mailbox is located on light pole on Lakeside Lane. The field there meets the requirements for a helicopter to land.

This is a copy of the email received from Mr. Babineaux of Acadian Airmed.

We at Acadian are capable and willing to respond to the area
highlighted on the map (Wilkinson County-Lake Mary) you sent us.
When calling (1-800-259-1111) we will need the following information given to our communication specialist.
1. The caller's name
2. The return phone number
3. The physical address of the emergency
4. The GPS coordinates to fly to.
5. The nature of the emergency
6. The destination hospital requested
7. An unobstructed, debris free area of at least 100" X 100"
8. Should this be a night flight, we would require perimeter lighting denoting the landing zone and radio communications with someone on the ground that has been trained as a Night Landing Zone coordinator.
Please call if you have any questions.
