A 12-day-old baby, in danger of death , was urgently transferred from Cagliari to Milan aboard a Gulfstream G-650A from the 31st Wing of the Italian Air Force at Ciampino.

The medical flight was activated at the request of the Cagliari Prefecture. The plane reached Linate Airport, where the young patient was handed over to medical personnel for subsequent hospitalization in San Donato Milanese , a specialized center for the necessary care.

Today's flight, as is usual for this type of activity, was authorized by the Presidency of the Council of Ministers, which manages and coordinates the activities of the state aircraft fleet.

The Italian Air Force's flight departments are available to the community 24 hours a day, 365 days a year , with vehicles and crews capable of operating even in complex weather conditions. They ensure the urgent transport not only of people in imminent danger of life, but also of organs, medical teams, or ambulances.

Hundreds of flight hours are carried out every year for this type of intervention by the aircraft of the 31st Wing of Ciampino, the 14th Wing of Pratica di Mare, the 46th Air Brigade of Pisa and the helicopters of the 15th Wing of Cervia.
