Dubbed Spright, the network would battle the lack of immediate or timely access to healthcare resources such as blood, medicines, diagnostics and small medical devices. Air Methods will deploy fleets of Wingcopter’s new flagship delivery drone, the Wingcopter 198, and integrate them into the company’s existing infrastructure of more than 300 bases serving hundreds of hospitals across 48 states in predominantly in rural areas.
