All call-outs are subject

capabilities of our aircraft, equipment and crew, and assuming
the weather is conducive for flight, LEAC will arrange for an
AIR-ONE helicopter to be launched as soon as possible to your
location. The safety of the crew and all personnel on the ground
is our #1 priority. LEAC cannot guarantee availability and all
mission call-outs are evaluated individually from a safety and
capability standpoint. LEAC may also dispatch ground support
personnel to your location to assist with landing zones and helicopter
refueling if necessary. Our personnel will check in with your
command post upon arrival where applicable. There is no-charge
to the requesting agency for the air support service.
