A Couple of Cessna Citation Bizjets - VH-MSU & VH-VDF - Come and Go at Proserpine (Whitsunday Coast) Airport - Plus More!

On Monday 11 January, a couple of Australian based Cessna Citation bizjets were noted coming and going at Proserpine (Whitsunday Coast) Airport.

After arriving the previous day from Mackay Airport (and prior to that, flying into Mackay Airport from Hamilton Island Airport) the visiting Avia Aviation (Victoria) Cessna 510 Citation Mustang bizjet VH-MSU looked to depart Prosie for the Gold Coast.

It then flew up to Hamilton Island Airport before then returning to Proserpine (Whitsunday Coast) Airport. It looked to again be spending the night parked at Prosie.

Also noted calling into Proserpine (Whitsunday Coast) Airport, also on Monday 11 January, was Jetstream Aviation (Emprja P/L) Cessna 550 Citation II VH-VDF.  It arrived from and later departed back to its Sunshine Coast base.

Meanwhile, over on Hamilton Island Airport, also on Monday 11 January, Linfox Express Charter / Air National Australia Canadair CL-600-2B16 Challenger 605 VH-LEF was noted visiting.  It arrived from its Melbourne (Essendon) base and departed to the Gold Coast.

Finally, also on Monday 11 January, and a little bit smaller in size, Torres Strait Air Pilatus Britten-Norman BN2B-20 Islander VH-WZP looked to arrive into Emerald Airport from Horn Island and Mareeba.

UPDATE!  On Tuesday 12 January, VH-WZP departed Emerald Airport and flew to the South-East corner of the state where it will undergo planned maintenance.  It possibly landed at Watts Bridge.
