Statement re Royal Flying Doctor Service and Elbit

The Palestine Support Network Australia (PSNA), on behalf of its member groups, is pleased to announce that the Royal Flying Doctors (RFDS) South East Section, has recently advised us that it has not entered into any commercial or contractual agreement with Elbit Systems Australia. 

The RFDS has stated that while Elbit Systems Australia was announced as a supplier of a flight simulator following an initial request for a tender process early in 2016, this has not eventuated. We understand that the RFDS is considering alternate flight training options as part of their forthcoming Dubbo base development.
