CYCLONE WINSTON - AIRSOURCE RESPONDS

Postby AS37 Norm Edwards » 23 Feb 2016 14:42

Cyclone Winston was the strongest tropical cyclone ever to hit Fiji. It left a trail of devastation with more than 20 people confirmed dead, hundreds of homes destroyed and over 8,000 people sheltering in evacuation centres. The outer islands bore the worst brunt, with reports of villages where 90 per cent of homes are damaged or destroyed.

The Royal New Zealand Air Force deployed a C130H Hercules and P3K Orion to Fiji to provide assistance. Head across to the Bid Division, Humanitarian Flights Category, to book your Bid Flight for these missions.
