✈️ Flight 207 | Brisbane → Hervey Bay
On 31 August 2026, Community Flights volunteer pilot Aaron took to the skies in his Piper Seminole to help bring patient Phoebe and her mum safely home to Hervey Bay following Phoebe's medical appointment in Brisbane. 💙✈️
After travelling to Brisbane earlier that day on Flight 206 with volunteer pilot Tahlene, Phoebe and her mum were ready to make the journey home.
Aaron flew them from Brisbane back to Hervey Bay, providing a much easier and more comfortable alternative to the long journey by road after a day of medical appointments.
A special thank you also goes to TransitCare, who once again provided complimentary ground transport between the airport and hospital, helping Phoebe and her mum get where they needed to go without the added stress and cost of arranging transport in Brisbane. 💙
It's the incredible teamwork between our volunteer pilots, transport partners and supporters that makes these journeys possible. From the moment a patient leaves home to the moment they return, every part of the journey matters.
A huge thank you to Aaron for volunteering his time and his Piper Seminole to help Phoebe and her mum get home safely. We are so grateful for the amazing pilots who continue to give their time to help regional Queenslanders access essential healthcare. ❤️
And thank you to TransitCare for continuing to support our patients with free ground transport. Your contribution makes such a difference. 💙
Every flight is another step towards closing the gap to healthcare access for regional Queenslanders. ✈️
