The Flying Doctors Australia
In April
I returned from a 6-week production in Australia
flying with The Royal Flying Doctors of Australia.
A Fact Not Fiction Films production, it took my crew
and I around Australia to some of the most remote locations.
This production was made possible by Pilatus
(and many others) who sponsored a beautiful
PC12 aircraft (with a great pilot)
for the duration of the production.
The Flying Doctors Australia series is
currenlty in postproduction.
