Confidence Flights Begin For Med Flight Staff

Med Flight Crash Killed 3 Members Of Team

Updated: 8:33 am CDT May 21, 2008

University of Wisconsin Hospital Med Flight staff members began confidence flights without patients onboard Tuesday afternoon.

It's the first step since a crash near La Crosse killed three members of the air ambulance team.

The 10-to-15-minute flights are available to staff members through Thursday. They give staff members the chance to fly before regular patient service resumes.

A final decision on when patient flights will resume has not been determined.
