Great Photos as a Nice Pair of Bizjets Call into Gladstone Airport - Hawker 850XP VH-BMW & Citation VH-EXQ

Local plane spotter Michael F ventured out to Gladstone Airport late on Sunday 1 June as a slightly unexpected pair of bizjets called into the industrial city from Adelaide.

First to touch down - rather unexpectedly - was Gojet Raytheon Hawker 850XP VH-BMW.  As it can't be tracked on usual Internet resources, its arrival from Adelaide was a a very nice surprise.

Then - as expected - Mitchell Air / Australian Corporate Jet Centres' Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign VH-EXQ also called in from Adelaide.

VH-BMW initially parked on the lower apron at Gladstone Airport - as shown in Michael's spectacular photos - before being re-positioned to the Western edge of the Airport.  VH-EXQ was parked on the upper parking apron of the Gladstone Airport terminal.

Around the middle of the day on Monday 2 June, both bizjets were noted being prepared for departure, presumably to Roma, where VH-EXQ was 'scheduled' to depart to.

Sincere thanks to Michael for capturing and sending through these fantastic photos!
