Nebraska Air Ambulance Project. Operation Sky-Aid
The Highway Safety Act of 1966 directs the Secretary of Transportation, acting through the Director of the National Highway Safety Bureau, to institute a Highway Safety Program designed to reduce traffic accidents and the consequent injuries and loss of human lives and property. Programs were instituted to insure that persons involved in highway accidents receive prompt emergency medical care. The standard specifically requires that each state prepare a comprehensive plan for emergency medical services. The Nebraska Air Ambulance Project's objectives were: To field test under civilian conditions the role a helicopter might play in providing emergency service under the most diversified combination of circumstances possible; To provide operating data pertinent to helicopter operations, i.e., weather, night flying, safety, communications, and maintenance.
