##### AMC3 SPA.VEMS.100 Emergency medical service operations with manned VTOL-capable aircraft (VEMS) *ED Decision 2025/010/R* **NON-PRE-SURVEYED VEMS OPERATING SITES** (a) For the use of non-pre-surveyed VEMS operating sites, the operator should have in place a procedure that enables the PIC to make a judgement on the suitability of a site for a safe landing and take-off with a reasonable expectation of no injuries to persons in the VCA and to persons on the ground. (b) All information that is reasonably practicable to acquire should be used by the operator to allow the PIC to establish the suitability of a non-pre-surveyed VEMS operating site considering the items of point [AMC2 SPA.VEMS.100(c)](#_DxCrossRefBm523089159) as applicable. (c) When intending to use a non-pre-surveyed and unfamiliar site, the PIC should gather as much information as possible about the area allowing the best estimate of obstacles, area slope and terrain to reduce the risk to a level as low as reasonably practicable.
