The PC-24 comes now with more range and payload. Beginning with new aircraft deliveries in 2024, Pilatus has extended the payload-range capability of its Super Versatile Jet to achieve a maximum of 2,000 nautical miles (3,704 kilometres).
The PC-24 is also available with air ambulance interior to operate it as flying intensive care unit. Benefits include low operating costs, cargo door for easy patient loading, and the ability to operate in and out of short and even unpaved surfaces.
The PC-24 is simply the world’s best Air Ambulance Jet flown by the most reputable Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia, KSA Swedish Air Ambulance, Alaska’s North Slope Borough or New South Wales Air Ambulance, and many more.
Count on the world’s first Super Versatile Jet too - when seconds count!

There are a number of airstrips marked on highways in Australia. They are used for emergencies, road accidents or local misadventures, usually by the “Flying Doctor” organisation, that provides medical services to all points in the country. This is not a first off landing, they have been used for years.

Nice video. I wondered about the roadbed, but then I saw the marking on the road for the beginning/end of the airstrip. Good idea to do that in the outback considering Australia is as big as the (continental) USA but has a lot fewer towns and people out there. I guess the 'airstrip' is long enough that there's no need to turn around and backtrack to take off, just accelerate in the same direction and up you go.

@@crosslink1493 No, you're watching a *BS Sales Video* ... WIND DIRECTION is important, so unless it's super-calm, OR the wind is exactly right-angle to the road, you ARE going to "backtrack" and take-off in the same direction you landed, i.e. INTO the wind. #SalesWeenies #AdMenAreMadMen 😉🙃

Whilst this may be a first for jet aircraft, RFDS planes have been landing on the Eyre Hwy, on the Nullarbor Plain since the early 1960’s. Those aircraft, Piper PA31’s used about 2800/3300 ft in length runways. The Goldfields section of the RFDS worked with the WA Police to determine those sections that were suitable for aircraft landings. Still it would have been great to have witnessed this landing and takeoff. Cheers

@@robguyatt9602 I think you're missing my very simple point and unnecessarily complicating it. I am not concerned with who purchased the jet or why. I am simply stating that a jet like the PC-24 is expanding mission capabilities reserved for slower flying aircraft. Turboprops that are larger than the PC-24 are irrelevant because they have a slower approach and stall speed than jets, regardless of size, allowing them to land on short or unpaved strips. The jet can now do this while being superior in the ways jets are regarding speed and altitude.

I'm an Aussie, and I was driving in northern Finland last year. There are hundreds of kilometres of single lane (each way) roads with tall pine trees right up to the edge of the road. It's like driving along a huge corridor. The trees are quite thick, and you can't see much beyond them. This particular day, I am driving on this type of highway road and I see a sign saying airfield ahead. So, while driving I am looking out the side of the car to see if I could get a glimpse of an airfield through these trees. It would be such a break to the monotonous trees, trees, trees. Holey sh!t all of a sudden I look ahead and I am driving down the middle of a full runway. I mean a bitumen strip at least 6 times wider than the road I was on and the piano stripes. The only thing that gave me a bit of assurance I am on the correct road was the continuation of the roads centre line. This strip was a good kilometre long or a bit more. I saw on youtube the next day on another section just south of this one, the Finnish airforce conducted take off and landings with hot refuelling exercises. This was the first time they did this in about 30 years. This road runs parallel to and not too far away from the Russian border. That explains a few things.

@dmitripogosian5084 I was also once in Taiwan and travelling south from Taipei along their western coast by bus. I noticed the dual lanes north and south had a continuation of the road pavement on the medium strip between these lanes. Although there were guard rails preventing cars travelling along this wide centre area. When speaking to someone local, they told me it is so the guard rails can be quickly removed, and any of the entire 100kms of this road can be turned into an airstrip. That was in 1995. Knowing what is looming these days, I can understand this fully.

This landing strip is actually on the Stuart Hwy, between Coober Pedy and Glendambo, South Australia. “On Thursday 27 April 2023, the RFDS performed the first ‘highway landing’ of an aeromedical jet on Australian soil. The milestone landing of the RFDS Medi-Jet 24 on the Stuart Highway in Far North SA was performed as part of a joint training exercise conducted by the RFDS and South Australia Police (SAPOL). Responding to a fictitious motor vehicle accident scenario, the scheduled exercise comprised two components - a desktop simulation of the activation and communications procedures between SAPOL, RFDS and State Emergency Service (SES), followed by the temporary closure of the Stuart Highway by local authorities to enable the landing of RFDS and SAPOL aircraft. The RFDS Medi-Jet 24 and SAPOL Pilatus PC12 aircraft landed on the Traeger Emergency Roadstrip near Glendambo, a designated 1200-metre landing strip incorporated into the Stuart Highway (600 kilometres north of Adelaide) designed specifically for the RFDS and other airborne emergency services. The world’s first purpose-built aeromedical jet, the RFDS Medi-Jet 24, has the capacity to transport three stretchered patients (and crew) and is ideal when responding to multiple-trauma incidents such as a bus, multi-vehicle or workplace accidents. The $15 million RFDS Medi-Jet 24, purchased using fundraising and donations from the community, has been used on sealed and remote unsealed airstrips but not yet used to land on a highway roadstrip “Roadstrip landings are logistically complex, which require multi-agency collaboration and seamless coordination and communication between emergency services in the air and the ground to perform quickly and safely," RFDS SA/NT Head of Flight Operations, Damien Heath said. “Today’s collaboration with SAPOL and local emergency service partners ensures we are all response ready for those in the community when they need it most, not just with our turbo-prop aircraft but now also with our jet aircraft.”

Also the RFDS's issued on landing on dirt stripes had a major input of the used of sealed road surfaces.

because roads are very long and straight, lots of them in the outback have runway markings in places for emergency aircraft.

Ohne Audio wäre es ein tolles Video. Musik kann man das eigentlich nicht nennen. So ein bißchen Triebwerksgeräusche, natürlich echt und nicht dazu gemischt - das wärs gewesen. Aber davon ab: tolles Flugzeug!

Well, that may have technically been a road but with traffic blocked at both ends, painted threshold markings and a windsock on the side, that's a lot more like a runway than like a road.

The highways are set up like that in remote areas like the Nullabor. Many thanks to the RFDS that operate these aircraft. I have never had to use the service and hope I never will.

These sections are marked out in multiple locations for this exact purpose. Of course traffic is blocked for the video, but in reality if there's no time for police to get out there, the aircraft flies a low circuit to warn traffic then when clear they land. There's large signs approaching these emergency sections saying if you see low flying plane, get off the marked section. The road is widened and marked out permanently

Back in the old days and even now there were line on the highway not for the reason here. They used to use aerial police used to time cars and trucks between the 2 white lines and and the end of those lines used to be patrol cars .

First of all , this is a runway. And a Road. The Road is prepared, so it is not a plain road. There is no difference to a Runway. The idea is good, to prepair sections of roads into runways so in case of emergency the plane can come closer nearby to the emergency location. But this here could also do a caravan, beech or citation either. It looks impressive, but nothing special only the PC 24 could do. In my opinion.

Cool looking, but i would trade all the fancy production music and editing for the sounds as they occurred. Thrust reverser deployment would have been nice to see.
