United States Air Force (USAF) Boeing C-17A Globemaster III Transport Aircraft 09-9210 Departs Rockhampton Airport Again as "Reach 363"

After arriving the previous evening and being photographed early on Tuesday 2 July, later in the day, the visiting United States Air Force (USAF) Boeing C-17A Globemaster III transport aircraft 09-9210 departed Rockhampton Airport for Kadena Air Base in Japan again as "Reach 363".

Of interest, 99-0168 is flown by The 62nd Airlift Wing (62 AW) stationed at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washington.

Meanwhile, as mentioned below, fellow USAF C-17A Globemaster 99-0168, which arrived into Rockhampton Airport late on Sunday 30 June as "Trek 24", has indeed suffered a technical issue and remains parked on Gate 6 on the Southern end of the Rockhampton Airport parking apron.

Sincere thanks to local plane spotters Jasom M, 'IAD' and Daniel B for taking the time to capture and send through this quick photo - more later!
