LAFD Air Ops | Hoist Rescue 🚁 Back in March, LAFD Air Operations carried out a high-stakes hoist rescue, safely airlifting a 55-year-old woman in serious condition for urgent medical care. Crews navigated multiple high-tension power lines to reach the patient—an effort that required precision, experience, and seamless teamwork to ensure a successful outcome. #rescue #firefighter #firstresponders #helicopter #helicopterrescue | Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation

LAFD Air Operations, you rock my world. It's incredible to see what goes into a rescue mission, how these guys get everything ready and launched in 4 minutes, and the constant training required to be ready for anything that comes their way. Thank you for allowing our KTLA 5 News crew a rare, close-up glimpse into some of what you do. We rode in an Agusta AW-139, and it was glorious. More with these heroes to come soon to a TV near you.... | Christina Pascucci
