This kind of scenerio happens far too often, including some of the patients  
that are now dead in air ambulance air crashes.

Yes they  are.

A man wrecked his 4 wheeler. Walked A MILE to get back to his camp  without
difficulty.

Local EMS arrived and called for a helicopter.  Patient awake and alert with
a scalp laceration with controlled  bleeding.

Flown to a non trauma center, stitched up and  dc'd.

There was another non trauma center hospital just about 5 miles  away he
could have gone to with same  outcome.
