MISSION 2544 - ROBINVALE / ESSENDON / ROBINVALE

SUBSEQUENT TRIP REQUEST: 11th and 12th flights.

Two year old Matilda from Robinvale near Swan Hill needed to undergo a pre-operative assessment for a Cochlear Implant.

Due to financial hardship and the distance to Melbourne the family would not have been able to continue this process without assistance from Angel Flight.

Comment by Mike

"Comment was made by mum Tanya that the flight was relatively smooth as she had psyched herself up for an expected 'bumpy' ride. Considering the significant weather changes, with strong head winds, a drop from 40c to 25c within a half hour of our departure time and a line of rolling storms out to our right travelling from West to East it was a GOOD flight.

Great co-operation as usual from ATC assisting our Angel flight all the way to Robinvale and back. Little Matilda smiled all the way and brother Joe seemed to enjoy the experience too. The trip home was considerably quicker with those tailies assisting."
