Garden City Helicopters is the proud operator of a fleet of fixed-wing aircraft, operating as dedicated transport aircraft for the New Zealand Flying Doctor Service.
The latest addition to the Garden City Helicopter's fleet of aircraft is a high performance Beechcraft King Air 200, fully refurbished with comfortable new interior and new livery plus an extensive avionics package seldom seen on comparable corporate aircraft. The King Air 200 has the ability to fly in 8 passenger VIP mode or be quickly converted for use in Air Ambulance mode with space for 2 patient stretchers plus equipment and up to 4 medical attendants. With its own, self-contained stretcher lifting capability and short runway requirements, the King Air 200 can operate around the country, including the Chatham Islands.
For 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, the New Zealand Flying Doctor Service provides for qualified, skilled medical practitioners in the aircraft alongside patients who are being transferred to medical facilities for any number of reasons. From critical care burns victims, spinal injury patients, neonatal transfers, or accident trauma victims to routine elective surgery transfers, organ delivery, blood or equipment supply, the New Zealand Flying Doctor Service can offer a fast, efficient and effective transfer facility with specialised care and attention every step of the way.
