Limosa is to partner with emergency air medical transport operator Airmedic to improve the interior design and functionality of LimoMedic, the ambulance version of its eVTOL/eCTOL LimoConnect aircraft, to meet the specific needs and recommendations of air ambulance operators. Airmedic operates a fleet of Airbus helicopters and Pilatus aircraft as air ambulances.

Airmedic CEO Sophie Larochelle highlights her company's commitment to sustainable operations: "We are at the beginning of an extraordinary journey in the electric transportation sector. We are particularly sensitive to the ecological footprint of our sector, and with this partnership we would have the opportunity to commit to sustainability, as we believe in the innovation of zero-emission aircraft."

Limosa president and CEO Hamid Hamidi says: "I am excited about this partnership, as Airmedic brings a wealth of experience in operating air ambulances in Quebec, particularly in the northern regions. It currently operates helicopters and fixed wing aircraft, while our LimoMedic aircraft combines the best of both worlds. It can take off and land vertically, like a helicopter, and switch to horizontal flight, like a fixed wing aircraft. It can also take off and land horizontally. In addition, it is exceptionally quiet, making it ideal for use in urban environments."

"This partnership is a strategic milestone in the evolution of advanced air mobility in Quebec. It is a perfect illustration of the sector's ability to innovate rapidly and sustainably, while pursuing its goal of connecting people. Together, we are taking a significant step towards a future where advanced technologies become essential tools in the service of community well-being," says Mélanie Lussier, president of Quebecan aerospace cluster Aéro Montréal.
