The story of how she made it home<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Carl Dietrich, the co-founder, president and chief designer of Jump Aero, said that\u2019s what drove him to design a fully electric aircraft that can cut emergency response times in half.<\/p>\n<p>The aircraft is still in development but could be ready to fly as early as next year. <\/p>\n<h3>Ready for takeoff<\/h3>\n<p>Pulse, Jump Aero\u2019s spaceship-like electric aircraft that Dietrich compared to the lunar lander in design, took seven years to develop and is unlike any other kind of aircraft, he said.<\/p>\n<p>He saw a need, especially in rural communities far from hospitals, for a quicker way to get injured people the medical care they need. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHelicopters take generally about 3 minutes to spool up, and in a rapid response scenario where the patient is not getting oxygen at that point, those minutes are really expensive,\u201d he said. Expensive in a figurative sense for the patient losing oxygen, and expensive in a literal sense for insurance companies, Dietrich explained. <\/p>\n<p>What makes Pulse unique and effective is how quickly it can take off and land, and how fast it can travel. In less than eight minutes, Dietrich said it can cover 2,800 square miles. \u201cThat\u2019s a capability that doesn\u2019t exist\u201d in other emergency response aircraft, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Pulse can also land in remote and rocky areas, like \u201con a rural dirt road or somebody\u2019s backyard\u201d because of its four shock-absorbing landing points, Dietrich said. <\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s much quieter than a helicopter because it\u2019s powered by batteries, noted Clint Harper, the director of integration at Future Flight Global. He said communities appreciate that. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/americanmovershub.com\/?p=4363\">4 Olympic policies the NHL should adopt<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Sending help<\/h3>\n<p>Pulse is a piloted aircraft that can transport a medic or EMT trained to pilot it. The pilot flies while standing up and looks out a large window to see where to go and land. <\/p>\n<p>Instead of picking patients up and taking them to a hospital, Pulse allows help to arrive quicker than current technology does.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey fly themselves to the scene of the emergency, they get out with their life-saving equipment and they go and they stabilize the patient,\u201d Dietrich said. \u201cThey stay with the patient until the ambulance shows up, and then oftentimes they\u2019ll actually go with the patient because they know the most about the patient at that moment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the future, Dietrich said Pulse could potentially fly itself home after the pilot is dropped off. <\/p>\n<h3>The time frame and cost<\/h3>\n<p>The aircraft is expected to be flying \u201cas soon as next year\u201d and \u201cin the field as soon as a couple years after that,\u201d Dietrich said. Much of the timing depends on money and contracts the company is working to secure. Jump Aero needs around $50 million to finish developing the technology.<\/p>\n<p>Dietrich estimated an aircraft like Pulse will sell for $1.8 million to $2 million. To put that in perspective, \u201cthe least expensive helicopter right now is about $2.4 million,\u201d and many sell for $5 million, he said.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s not meant to replace ambulances or helicopters. \u201cIt\u2019s meant to be a complementary technology,\u201d he said. Getting medical help to patients in rural areas faster while they wait for transportation to arrive can shave off crucial minutes and save lives. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/americanmovershub.com\/?p=4361\">5 bold predictions for the 2026 BYU football season<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is Pulse, Jump Aero&#8217;s new aircraft?
