I guess this is Aviation related. Not much more on the story. They took him into Manhattan, wonder if they medevaced him or went by ground?

I suspect they probably sent him by ground. Hopefully there was enough of his finger left to pack on ice and take to the hospital for re-attachment. I saw a guy several years ago--ok, around 35 or so--get his finger taken off by the chain on a forklift at a lumber yard. Not a pretty sight...
