To lay a foundation for the type selection of the ambulance helicopter. The type selection was explored from the aspects of platform selection, rescue environment and service requirements, analyzing the rescue in the helicopter and the tendency of the ambulance helicopter in foreign countries and China. The types of the am-bulance helicopter were determined as the specific and modified ambulances, with the considerations such as operation environment, flight performance, cabin structure, onboard equipment, cabin configuration, fixation device and protection. Specific ambulance helicopter is supposed to be based on small- or mediate-sized platform, while the modi-fied ambulance helicopter is supposed to be based on large or heavy platform.
