Our fixed wing fleet are all equipped for day and night instrument flying including flying in known icing conditions, which ensures we are able to deliver safe and reliable services to our clients.

All our aircraft are equipped with Global Position Systems and a full ’suite’ of up to date avionic and navigational aids.

Beechcraft King Air B200C

The pride of our fixed wing fleet is the recently purchased King Air B200C. This is arguably the best fixed wing air ambulance currently operating in New Zealand.

The turboprop King Air is equipped with a two stretcher ‘Lifeport system’ capable of flying two intensive care patients and two clinical teams nonstop to any destination in New Zealand and the Chatham Islands.

It has huge cargo door and lifting devices which enables us to assist with the transport of larger stretchered and seated patients.

In corporate charter configuration, up to 8 passengers can be accommodated in luxury.

The aircraft is pressurised and can maintain a sea level cabin pressure up to 15,000ft, fly at approximately 270 knots. This aircraft is flown in a two pilot configuration.

A Flightcell satellite telephone system provides worldwide telephone communication and is available for the use of flight crew, passengers and clinical teams.

Piper Navajo

The smallest of our fleet but an important aircraft for transporting less critical patients not requiring a pressurised cabin and where there is a need for a lower cost option.

Again a single stretcher is provided for, together with the capability to carry a full clinical team or up to 5 seated passengers in charter configuration.

Cessna 421C Golden Eagle

The Golden Eagle is configured for the transport of single stretcher patients, including a full clinical team if required. The cabin is pressurised and can also be configured to transport 6 passengers.
This aircraft is operated exclusively in support of our aeromedical programme and is available 24/7.
