The program
With RACQ CQ Rescue staff on hand 24 hours a day, the helicopter attends to hundreds of tasks each year within a 300km radius of Mackay, although it is not restricted to this area.
Importantly, it services central Queensland’s grazing and mining regions where Arrow has existing operations, which means Arrow staff and their families also benefit by being able to access the enhanced medical treatment service provided by the RACQ CQ Rescue helicopter.
