Ambulance Toll Rescue Choppers

Post by Mike Alpha » Thu Jan 12, 2017 11:24 pm

I know Toll now runs the NSW Ambulance rescue choppers but surely this isn't their new livery?

Their callsigns have also changes from Rescue 23, 24 etc to Rescue 203, 204 etc.

Yes the NSWA signage is very sparse, limited to a few roundels. I thought they may have gone a bit better then that.
Be interested to see how the Southcare replacement looks given there has been a very public feud over funding.

The Rescue call signs for the aircraft are Rescue 201 through to Rescue 209, excluding 205.
Call signs are allocated to the aircraft and not to a base location. Currently, they have two aircraft​ operational in Bankstown but have a total of eight aircraft in the fleet. Registrations for the aircraft​ are TJE, TJF, TJG, TJH, TJI, TJJ, TJK, TJO. Thanks!

Have noticed a couple of times flying into Bankstown that there are 4 TOLL Aircraft at Bankstown.

Any idea when Canberra and Orange Bases were to switch operators
