Australian Army Sikorsky S-70A-9 Blackhawk Helicopter A25-202 Spotted at Rockhampton Airport Thursday

Captured by local plane spotter 'IAD' parked and being refuelled at Rockhampton Airport on Thursday 7 August was Australian Army Sikorsky S-70A-9 Blackhawk Helicopter A25-202.


It was noted calling from the South, where Gladstone plane spotter Anthony S captured a quick photo as it overflew the industrial city.


A25-202 was then noted departing Rocky for the North to Mackay, and was heard to be using the radio callsign of "Redback 202".

Meanwhile, an Australian Defence Force (ADF) NH Industries MRH-90 Multi-Role Helicopter was noted performing a training flight in the skies above Hamilton Island, with it also performing a VOR approach at Hamo.  Reports suggest it was using the radio callsign of "Destria 02".
