The Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, formerly County Air Ambulance, covers Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, the West Midlands, and Worcestershire.
The air ambulance Service was originally provided by Bond Air Services. The first Midlands air ambulance helicopter was a Bolkow 105, based in Hagley Hall in Worcestershire. A second BO105 was added in 1998, and a third in 1999. These three aircraft were gradually upgraded to Eurocopter EC135s; the first in 2001.
Today, the fleet also includes H145s, now operated by Babcock MCS Onshore, the successor to Bond Air Services. The charity currently operates three air ambulance helicopters and a fleet of critical care cars, providing rapid pre-hospital transport.
