“This show was inspired by the real-life experiences of my sister and brother-in-law, who met flying air ambulances in the north,” said series creator Julie Puckrin. “Together with a talented team of writers, we created relatable characters full of hope, compassion and resilience. I am thrilled to be working with such an incredible and diverse cast to bring these exciting, emotional stories to life.
