Resubmit

Please note that if the issues are not fixed, the draft will be declined again.

Comment: The draft is lacking inline citations and does not conform to our neutral POV policy, with statements like "has since grown into an industry leader, introducing advanced jet air ambulances for both domestic and international missions. Skyline has become a key player in the market, setting new standards in air ambulance operations". Please fix these before resubmitting. :) E_F⁵ 13:57, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
