Unresponsive 208 above BNE, RFDS intercept

Redcliffe | Aircraft emergency near Brisbane tonight with a Cessna 208 flying from Cairns to Redcliffe Airport reported as unresponsive on autopilot, missing their destination by about 120km. A Royal Flying Doctors Service aircraft was flying alongside in attempts to make contact with the pilot. After a while contact was made and the aircraft landed safely at Gold Coast Airport. A RAAF Wedgetail operating nearby was on standby to escort the aircraft if required. The Pilot is believed to have suffered a medical episode. Source: AussieADSB.com
