EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the GAF Nomad 24 VH-DHQ, a vital asset in the Northern Territories Medical Services during the 1980s and 1990s. The Government Aircraft Factories (GAF) production, registered as VH-DHQ, was a key component of the Commonwealth Department of Health's aviation fleet. The GAF Nomad 24 was a versatile and rugged aircraft, designed to meet the unique challenges of operating in the remote and often harsh conditions of the Northern Territories. Its sturdy construction and reliable performance made it an ideal choice for medical evacuation and supply missions, ensuring the delivery of essential services to those in need. The image captures the Nomad in flight, with its distinctive silhouette and bright red cross emblazoned on the fuselage, a testament to its humanitarian mission. The plane's wings are outstretched, revealing the intricate details of its aeronautical design, while the propellers churn the air behind it, leaving a trail of turbulence in their wake. The Northern Territories Medical Services relied heavily on the GAF Nomad 24 to provide essential aerial transportation, connecting remote communities with medical facilities and supplies. The aircraft's ability to fly in challenging conditions and its spacious interior made it an invaluable tool for transporting patients, medical personnel, and cargo. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the crucial role that the GAF Nomad 24 played in the Northern Territories during the 1980s and 1990s, and the vital contributions made by the aviation industry in supporting the health and wellbeing of communities in some of the most remote and challenging regions of the world.
