Good question. CareFlight seemed seems to be doing a good job.


Also,
  • Who does the CareFlight fleet belong to?
  • Are the retrieval KingAirs owned by the NTG?


IIRC, federal funding recently for
  • CareFlight to purchase a B250, $10.1m in April 25
  • CareFlight to purchase a second G150 and helicopter $ 20 m in 2023, (maybe, or maybe-not part of the TEMRS)

There is lots of Other People’s Money involved; tax payer dollars, either Federal or NT.
