Beloved by fans and critics alike, RFDS soars into its third season from 7.30pm Wednesday, 1 October on Seven and 7plus.
When a bus that Pete (Stephen Peacocke) is travelling on crashes on a remote desert highway, the team are suddenly reunited.

The situation turns from bad to worse when one of the RFDS’ own finds themselves badly injured in the rescue attempt. With limited space, Eliza (Emma Hamilton) is forced to make the horrible decision of who to save and who to leave behind, the repercussions of which will leave lasting scars on the community and the team.
