The Sunshine Coast-based LifeFlight helicopter was despatched about 11:00am on Monday.
The woman was treated by a LifeFlight Critical Care Doctor and Queensland Ambulance ServiceFlight Paramedic for serious facial burns and possible airway damage.
She was then airlifted to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital in a stable condition.
