Airloovator

The Airloovator is an air-based ambulance, used to fetch patients calling in with an emergency. It is first made available to research in a Research room at the outset of Pointy Pass, which requires the Speedy Recovery DLC, as can two upgrades to its diagnosis power and durability. To compare its strengths and shortcomings with other ambulance types, please see the table below.

Appearance
Mounted into a dark grey base with a single step is a white booth, with red-and-white checkered patterning around the lower half, and a door set into the front. Topped by a curved red roof, with two emergency lights duct-taped on opposing sides, a metal plate with a hook is riveted into the centre, with a bunch of helium-filled red-and-white ballons tied on.

The Airloovator II and II add no cosmetic changes.

Function
Upon being dispatched to an emergency, a Doctor or Nurse with the Flying Qualification will enter the vehicle, and speed off to the scene. Their progress can be tracked on the Two Two Point Nav, and they will return with as many patients as possible (only 1, in a Airloovator). If there are still patients remaining at the emergency scene, the ambulance will make another trip automatically.

On their return journey, diagnostic tests will be performed on the patients, who, upon arrival, will proceed straight to a diagnosis room, or to treatment if they have already passed the diagnostic threshold.

Maintenance
The Airloovator loses a portion of its maintenance gauge with each trip. Once the gauge falls below 50%, Gretchen Gearbox will automatically be called to repair it. She can also be summoned manually by the player by selecting the ambulance and pressing.

Should the maintenance gauge fall to 0%, the Airloovator will break down, and may not be sent to further emergencies before being repaired.

Upgrades
Upgrades are performed by Gretchen Gearbox, or a Janitor with the Vehicular Mechanics Qualification. The machine will not be accessible while this work is being done, although it can be interrupted and resumed without losing progress.

Staff
A or  with the  will be required to pilot the Airloovator.

In addition, Gretchen Gearbox is required to maintain the ambulance, and upgrades can be applied either by her or a with.
