“I can fly much faster than you can roll, Thomas. It's hard for a train to beat a plane to an emergency.”
― Isla

Cyclone Thomas is the nineteenth episode of the twenty-second series.

Plot

While working in Australia lugging rocks in an outback mine, Shane comes up alongside Thomas and points out to him Isla, a flying doctor's plane who transports Doctor Claire to help out people who are too far away to get to the hospital for treatment. Thomas becomes admired by Isla and imagines he can fly so he can help out people as well.

In an attempt to try and be like Isla, Thomas attempts to go and pick up a sick patient at Pine Tree, despite Shane attempting to tell Thomas that Isla can deal with it. Unfortunately for Thomas, he is disappointed to see Isla already there, since she is much faster than Thomas. He later tries to help a man with a broken leg at Adelaide River, but Isla decides that it is best left for her to deal with (being a medical expert) and takes the man onboard.

While Thomas is talking to Shane, Aubrey and Aiden, Isla flies in to say that there is a cyclone at Katherine and she and Doctor Claire are going to rescue the people. Unfortunately, the strong winds of the cyclone forces Isla to turn back. Thomas sees this as his chance to try and help rescue people, and is able to brave the cyclone to go through it. Isla later congratulates Thomas for successfully evacuating the people, for which Thomas feels like a hero like Isla.
