World’s Only Flying Hospital: Orbis DC-10 | Extreme Planes | FD Engineering

Symphony of the Seas - Aboard a Colossal Engineering Marvel:

The Orbis aircraft—a once-ordinary DC-10—has been ingeniously repurposed into a state-of-the-art flying eye hospital. The episode chronicles its critical mission to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, where it brings cutting-edge ophthalmic care to communities in need. What begins as a hopeful journey quickly becomes a high-stakes operation as the Orbis team encounters a cascade of unexpected setbacks: from logistical snags and complex ground support challenges, to weather delays and technical hurdles that threaten to delay or derail the lifesaving clinic's arrival. Viewers gain a front-row seat to the convergence of aviation precision and medical urgency—from meticulous pre-flight preparations to the atmospheric pressures of air traffic clearance, and from adapting an airliner into a clinical environment to navigating the unpredictable elements of international aid delivery. With dramatic aerial cinematography and heartfelt human stories, this episode illuminates how innovation, determination, and compassion intersect at 30,000 feet, as the Orbis crew races to overcome adversity and restore vision—one patient at a time.
