Some Comings and Goings at Hamilton Island Airport - VH-LYM - VH-VSQ - VH-MMY - VH-OHN

Early on Tuesday 16 August, Edwards Coaches Cessna 650 Citation VII bizjet VH-LYM was noted arriving at Hamilton Island Airport from its Armidale (New South Wales) base.

After a just over an hour on the ground, VH-LYM departed Hamo for Sydney before later returning home to Armidale.

On Monday 15 August, Cessna 510 Citation Mustang VH-VSQ (shown below) departed Hamilton Island Airport for Mount Isa.  It had arrived from Archerfield on Saturday 13 August.

As mentioned below, VH-VSQ still appears to be travelling with Beech A36 Bonanza VH-MMY which also departed Hamo for Mount Isa also on Monday 15 August.

Meanwhile, Brenzil Dassault Falcon 7X bizjet VH-CRW, which arrived at Hamilton Island Airport on Friday 12 August, seems to be still parked on the Island.

Finally, a couple of interesting light General Aviation (GA) aircraft to be noted visiting Hamilton Island Airport in recent days included Hawker Beechcraft G58 Baron VH-EZD which arrived from Rockhampton on Tuesday 16 August.  Also on Tuesday 16 August, Cairns-based Piper PA-31-350 VH-OCF also paid Hamo a visit from Proserpine / Whitsunday Coast Airport.  I'm told that VH-OCF was also due to pay Hamo a visit on Monday 15 August.  GSL Aviation Piper PA-31-350 Navajo Chieftan VH-KFU operated into Hamo from and back to Cairns late on Monday 15 August.  And Mackay-based Gippaero GA-8 Airvan VH-OHN is presently being operated by Regional Air out of Mackay Airport and has operated at least twice into Hamo from and back to Mackay over recent days including on Sunday 14 August.
