31/07/16

Today an aircraft of the 31st Wing was engaged for the transport of a 4-year-old child.

A Falcon 50, following a request from the prefecture of Cagliari, flew in favor of a small patient suffering from a serious pathology.

He left Cagliari at 16.40 pm for Genoa and landed at 17.40 pm, where the child was expected by an ambulance to be taken to the Gaslini hospital.

Transport requests have been received by Summit Situation Room of the Air Force Command of the Italian Air Force which directly coordinated the activity with Ciampino's 31 ° Stormo.

The aircraft of the 31 ° Stormo of Ciampino are used for state transport and for public utility missions, such as emergency medical transport of the sick, severely traumatized and transplant organs, as well as for interventions in favor of people in any case in risk situations. This last activity, given the imminent danger of life of the transported people, imposes a level of readiness, twenty-four hours a day, 365 days a year.
