Australian Air Race Events Inc proudly supporting the Royal Flying Doctor Service

The Outback Air Race is a time trial through the remote Australian Outback. It isn’t really a race – but it does get very competitive, although it is also a lot of fun!

Every team fundraises for the RFDS in the twelve months leading up to the race. Esssentially a navigationally challenging and self funded holiday for the Pilots and teams, they get to fly to and meet people in parts of Australia that many do not get to see.

The Outback Air Race raises funds for the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Since 1996 competitors and spectators have raised over $3.1 million. Funds from each race go towards outfitting RFDS aircraft with essential medical equipment, vital for treating sick and injured patients.

The Outback Air Race is held every three years.
