Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Boeing C-17A Globemaster III A41-209 conducted a missed approach at Rockhampton Airport on Wednesday 2 July.

Local plane spotter Kayanne H was on hand to capture a couple of great photos as the C-17 approached Rockhampton Airport.

After the missed approach, the C-17 then made a sharp right hand turn and headed for the Shoalwater Bay Training Area (SWBTA).

Later in the day, A41-209 was heard to be also be conducting airwork at Maryborough.

On both occasions, A41-209 was heard to be using the radio callsign of "Stallion 23".

Thanks Kayanne for the great photos on a stunning day in Rockhampton!
