The mission descriptions from Angel Flight was:
INITIAL TRIP REQUEST:A 52 year old lady from Theodore has Coronary Heart Disease and is required to have replacement and by pass surgery.
Due to this condition travel by road would be extremely tiring and not desirable.
Earth Angel Rod Sherman was on his maiden mission and not used to hospitals sending you hither and thither before finally meeting up with Anne. When he arrived
at Archerfield, he pulled up to the airside gate and waited for me. I, in the meantime was waiting for them 5m, just around the corner. With me not turning up to open
the gate (I don't have access to the vehicle gate), Rod eventually phoned me. I walked around the corner and we sorted things out.
Anne settled in the back seat as we got going to the north and headed for Kilcoy, our first beacon on the way to Theodore. We soon climbed to 10,000' where we enjoyed a smooth flight in the clear conditions that prevailed. Anne was soon snoozing as I looked after the engine and tried to keep us going in the general direction of Theodore.
After a little over one and a half hours we alighted at Theodore. I was surprised to have one of my previous passengers Allan there to greet us. Theodore, being a small town, has everyone helping everyone else!
Apart from making disparaging remarks about my flying Allan was most welcoming and friendly, even giving me some of his home grown tomatoes and some home made
chutney.
With Anne safely ensconsed in Allan's car and heading back home, I too started up the engine and headed back south again. The flight at 9,000' was uneventful and I touched down in Archerfield and hour and a half later again.
