The chopper was sent to the scene shortly before 11am (May 13), where the pilot was able to land the aircraft in a nearby paddock.
The aeromedical team worked alongside paramedics from the Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) to treat the man, aged in his fifties, for multiple injuries.
He was transported in a critical condition to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital.
