  CAPTION:
This tiny DeHavilland DH50 Fox Moth aircraft, leased from the new Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Service (later QANTAS) by John Flynn's Australian Inland Mission, established the first 'flying doctor' service in the world on 17 May 1928. Initially covering central and western Queensland from a base at Cloncurry, the service became the Australian Aerial Medical Service in 1934 and was renamed the Royal
Flying Doctor Service in 1955.

The Northern Territory Archives Service and the National Archives of Australia hold relevant records.
