Talk about time flying! ✈️

📷 RFDS engineers Val, Craig and Brad recently helped us recreate this original photo taken in our Adelaide hangar in 2005.

More than 20 years later, they're still toiling hard behind the scenes ensuring our patients and crews remain safe across our fleet. Quite incredible!

A huge shout out to our friends at Exact Contracting, who recently came on board as an RFDS Community Partner! 🤝

Not only did they contribute to our $170,000 in matched funds for Double Up for the Day, but their teams went above and beyond raising an additional $25,000 through BBQs and raffles.

A fantastic effort all around, and a great excuse to come together, have some fun, and help keep the Flying Doctor flying. ✈️

We’re also proud to have Exact's support for our upcoming 'Wings for Life' Gala Ball! 💙

Beefing up better care! 🤠

It was fantastic to be part of the Northern Territory Cattlemen's Association Conference last week in Darwin.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by for a quick 5-minute health check and chat. Looking after your health should be as routine as looking after your land and livestock. 🩺

🎒 We were also proud to anounce our new 'virtual care backpack' initiative coming soon. Read more: flyingdoctor.org.au/news/virtual-emergency-care-trial-nt/

Making every mile count! ✈️🏦

This week, we welcomed Westpac as our new Banking Partner in supporting the delivery of critical healthcare services across SA/NT.

The partnership brings together two organisations with long and proud histories of serving Australians beyond our major cities.

In recognition of Westpac's commitment, two medically-equipped RFDS aircraft, including a new Pilatus PC-12 PRO, will bear the Westpac brand on its fuselage.

🗣️ “Both our organisations were built to serve regional communities, and that shared purpose makes this partnership especially meaningful.”

As Ex-Tropical Cyclone Narelle tracks across the NT, our RFDS crews and coordinators have been busy evacuating patients from already flood-hit Katherine to Darwin — supporting more than a dozen people in the past 20 hours. ✈️

We’re working closely with emergency services to keep communities safe, especially those needing urgent care.

We urge residents to stay safe and follow official local advice:
🚨 For local emergency management advice visit securent.nt.gov.au.
📞 For emergency assistance: call SES on 132 500.
🏥 In life-threatening emergencies: call 000.

With up to 300mm of rain forecast across the already saturated Top End, we stand with our communities. As resilient as Territorians are, we all need support in challenging times. ❤️
