A modified G550 jet designed for in-flight medical care has been delivered to the Beijing Red Cross Emergency Medical Center, Gulfstream announced last week. The jet features an "unprecedented degree of technological innovation," according to Gulfstream. The medical bay is outfitted with equipment to help critically ill patients, including a bed that provides 360-degree access, which Gulfstream says is a medevac first. The cabin also features refrigerated medical storage cabinets, X-ray viewing equipment, fold-out nurses' seats and berths for crew rest. The jet is intended to be used for disaster relief, evacuation and rescue, Gulfstream said.
