Royal Flying Doctor Service Dubbo Visitor Experience
RFDS Dubbo Visitor Experience
A visitor experience beside Dubbo Airport about the Royal Flying Doctor Service, with a real rescue hangar, holograms and interactive displays on healthcare in the outback.
The Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) provides aerial emergency care and medical services across Australia's vast interior, and its Dubbo base is a key hub in New South Wales. The visitor experience, opened in 2020, sits beside the hangar: through the glass you can see real emergency aircraft and crews on duty. Exhibits include a recreated medical cabin, holographic stories of patients, a family interactive area and a café. Admission is about A$20, and it is generally open 09:00–17:00. A visit takes about 1–1.5 hours, and ticket revenue supports the flying doctor service.
