BlackHawk on Evac taking off

With most of South East Queensland either under water or under threat, there are lots of people who are in need of evacuation as the waters continue to rise.

There was a constant parade of helicopters from over near Narda Lagoon here in Laidley to the hospital so that people can be shipped to high ground.

Here is one of the two Army Blackhawks taking off from the hospital to go rescue another group of people. with a Sea King having already taken off.
