After gracing the skies of Maryborough, Gladstone and Rockhampton, the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Balloon and crew have continued their journey around Central Queensland, travelling South to tour parts of the Fraser Coast and Wide Bay region during their Capricornia 2014 tour.
Travelling South through Bundaberg, inland to Childers, and finally onto Hervey Bay, the RAAF Balloon crew met hundreds of local school students, teachers and parents, some of which have enjoyed the unique experience of a "loon walk" inside the envelope of the RAAF's venerable retired balloon – VH-FAN.
It was a great way for them to experience the magic and mystery of flight.
