Just broke the seal on an airline jump kit

Reyjavic General isn't as big as the Mayo Clinic, eh?

I was thinking about Iceland, Azores, Los Angeles...
 
Why the hard on for ej's they are just a peripheral vein.
 
I love EZ-IOs.


However, in my companies infinite wisdom, we do not have IOs for anyone over 6yo...

Do they provide a reason as to why?

I have no problem with the hospitals...it's the paramedics there that are, how to say it nicely, "distinctly lacking in the ability to play well with others".

EZ IO is expensive you know, Jamashidis are much cheaper.....
 
No problem man. Once all of the A/C have been updated to Delta standards (interiors, configurations), then all equipment will be modified so that all A/C have the same available equipment, and it will be easier for the crews to able to swap between aircraft.
 
flying with delta myself on my u.s trip. never seen sign or any evidence of a jump kit being on the flight

The first aid equipment is normally kept in one of the off limits overhead bins. There should be a little O2 sign and first aid kit sign right underneath the bin.

In my case it was actually kept locked inside a locker inside an overhead bin at the back of the plane. The lead flight attendant had to use a key to access both the AED and the drug box. This was on a domestic U.S. flight on Northwest Airlines (now Delta).

Everytime I used it on Delta, the lead flight attendant had to be the one to retrieve it and she got it from somewhere in the rear of the plane. The kits were large, so I imagine they are in a locked rear overhead or stowed away in some compartment. These are not items you would ever pull yourself.
 
ah i see, it got me thinking after reading this when i got on the plane. i just sat back and watched some movies though instead of worrying about it
