The RFDS Medi-Jet 24 - the purpose-built aeromedical jet - has been dedicated to John Lynch, former CEO, RFDS Central Operations.

“This is the most humbling thing that I have experienced in my working life,” Mr Lynch said in front of the aircraft with his wife Anita. 

John retired last November after serving the RFDS for over three decades, the last 18 years as CEO of RFDS Central Operations.
