Pilatus Delivers Innovative Ambulance Interior for Remote Medical Transport

Pilatus handed over the first medevac-equipped PC-24 to the Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia in November 2018. The aircraft was configured specifically for patient transport and features an innovative ambulance interior. The RFDS will operate the PC-24 in parallel with the PC-12, providing emergency medical services to remote areas of Australia. The aircraft’s capabilities, including its top speed and range, make it well-suited for the task. The Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia is a long-time customer of Pilatus, and this delivery may be part of a broader partnership.
