"We should be extremely grateful that we have a service like this so readily available, that can land so easily in the centre of our town," commented a Neyland resident who watched the Wales Air Ambulance land.
"The service should be supported as much as possible."
After treating the patient, the Air Ambulance took off at 4.30pm and made its way back to Llanelli.
