Queensland Government Airwing (State of Queensland) Raytheon B300 Super King Air VH-SGQ Spotted at Bundaberg Airport - Plus More!

On Thursday 22 October, the Queensland Government Airwing (State of Queensland) Raytheon B300 Super King Air VH-SGQ was spotted visiting Bundaberg Airport.  It looked to arrive from Brisbane.


After a couple of hours on the ground, VH-SGQ then continued up to Rockhampton Airport where it appears to be spending the night parked.

VH-SGQ is due to return to Brisbane from Rockhampton Airport on Friday 23 October.

Meanwhile, also spotted at Bundaberg Airport, also on Thursday 22 October, were a pair of McDermott Aviation / Heli-Lift Australia bushfire fighting helicopters in the form of Bell 214B-1 Biglifter helicopter VH-SUH "Helitack 417" and Aerospatiale AS.355F1 Squirrel VH-RLR "Helitack 460".



Finally, also on Thursday 22 October, the familiar sight of Corporate Aviation Bell 429 Global Ranger helicopter VH-EQP was back in CQ.  It looked to depart Emerald Airport for (possibly) Middlemount, Mackay and Biloela / Thangool Airports.  It then returned to its Southport base.

VH-EQP had flown North on Tuesday 20 October - see Blog post below!
