Plane Pilot – William

Meet Air Ambulance Pilot William

Get to know William

I started with Life Flight beginning 2024. The majority of my flying career has been overseas flying for a mission and humanitarian organisation in central Africa and the Asia Pacific region. I am drawn to the role simply because it is satisfying to help people who are on board with you because they are going through a difficult time.

When not flying, I play a bit a golf badly and enjoy completing projects around the house.

It’s good to be part of a not-for-profit organisation where the focus is on contributing meaningfully to society.
