90 years of Queensland RFDS pilots.
Since the early days of powered flight, the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) has been providing critical aeromedical services to those living in rural and remote Australia.
Founded in Queensland in 1928, the service was the brainchild of Rev. John Flynn. His mission was to provide a ‘mantle of safety’ for people living in the bush. From humble beginnings all those years ago, the RFDS has grown to operate across all states and territories in Australia.
