Pel Air / Regional Express (REX) SAAB 340B VH-ZRY Visits Bundaberg Airport

An interesting arrival into Bundaberg Airport on Monday 23 January was Pel Air Aviation / Regional Express (REX) SAAB 340B VH-ZRY.  The SAAB touched down direct from Sydney as PFY9880.  The flight looked to be a closed charter.

Local plane spotter Micah S popped out to Bundaberg Airport as the sun was setting and managed a couple of nice photos as VH-ZRY was parked up for the night.

And perhaps more interestingly, VH-ZRY departed Bundy early on Tuesday 24 January as PFY9281 for Bankstown - Sydney's general aviation airport.  It then completed the short hop back to Sydney as PFY9802.

I'm unsure if the exact reasons for the visit of the SAAB or the possible reason for the charter.

Sincere thanks to Micah for taking the time to capture and send through these great photos!
