Critical medical transport
The flight covered the route Gdynia – Wrocław – Warsaw – Gdynia, serving the University Clinical Centre in Gdańsk and the University Clinical Centre of the Medical University of Warsaw. Rapid deployment of medical teams and equipment is crucial in transplant operations, where every minute can make a difference.
Experience and tradition
This marked the 105th mission in the history of the “Heart Action” program carried out by crews of the Gdynia Naval Aviation Brigade. Since 2007, naval aviators have been involved in life-saving transport missions, developing extensive experience in highly demanding operations where precision and coordination are essential.
Every mission saves lives
The recent double operation demonstrates that “Heart Action” is more than just a program name – it represents tangible actions that save lives. For naval aviators, every flight is a critical mission in which time and reliability are decisive.
