Sarina State High School student, Joel Raward, was given an unforgettable behind-the-scenes experience at the Helicore BMA CQ Rescue Helicopter base last month on Thursday, 18 September.
Joel was treated to a full tour of the CQ Rescue facility, where he explored the control room and gained insight into how the coordination team manages life-saving missions across the region. He also had the chance to sit inside the helicopter itself, learning how the crew operates during critical rescue and aeromedical emergencies.
Operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, the BMA CQ Rescue helicopter serves as a lifeline for Central and North Queensland, reaching even the most remote locations. From urgent medical transfers to search and rescue operations, the skilled crew is always ready to respond when every second counts.
This vital community service depends heavily on public support to stay in the air. Donations help ensure that CQ Rescue can continue delivering rapid-response care when it’s needed most.
