A MAN from the Royal Australian Air Force suffered life-threatening third-degree burns after a portaloo exploded at Rockhampton Airport this morning.
A Department of Community Safety spokeswoman said it was believed the man was using the portaloo when he lit a cigarette.
“There was some sort of explosion,” the spokeswoman said.
“He suffered burns to his head, face, arms, chest and airways.”
The man was participating in operation Talisman Sabre 2011.
Talisman Sabre spokesman Brigadier Bob Brown said “The cause of the explosion is unknown and is being investigated.”
Emergency services were called to the airport about 9.30am.
The injured airman was taken to Rockhampton Hospital in a serious condition. He was scheduled to be transferred to Brisbane Hospital later today.
