Built in late 2015 by AgustaWestland's US assembly line in Philadelphia, test registration N623SS. In June of 2016, it became the 2nd AW139 used by the Royal Automobile Club of Queensland (RACQ). Seen here returning from a HEMS mission conducted under callsign RSCU511. In September 2023, the RACQ's AW139 fleet stands at five units based on four bases throughout Queensland. Also operated are three Bell 412's and one BK117.
