The Aerial Patrol was formed in 1957 . The Patrol’s charter, to maintain the safety and the welfare of the community through aerial observation and support, was paramount throughout the organisation and to this day forms the basis for which all operations and activities are conducted and provided.

The Aerial Patrol has a variety of functions that cater from the beach patrols throughout the summer through to the highest level of search and rescue within Australia. This level of search and rescue (Tier 1) means that the Aerial Patrol are on 24 hour, 7 day standby with a 30 minute response time to any tasking.
