A linguist's incredible story of surviving a plane crash and the future of medical drones!

Groote Eylandt linguist, Karla Zuluaga, had a life-changing experience when a Cessna 210 single propeller chart flight crash-landed shortly after takeoff, leaving her severely injured.

With the promise of increased access to pathology, treatment, and telehealth services, the medical drone represents a new era of healthcare accessibility and efficiency.

Karla Zuluaga's survival and the advancement of medical drones showcase the unpredictable nature of life and the marvels of technological progress. Despite facing different challenges, both stories highlight the importance of resilience and innovation in shaping our future. As we look ahead, these tales remind us of the incredible human spirit and the boundless possibilities that lie ahead.
