On Thursday 4 February, Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Boeing C-17A Globemaster III A41-210 was spotted completing a missed approach at Rockhampton Airport.

A41-210 looked to depart RAAF Base Amberley and flew straight up to Rocky. After completing the missed approach, the C-17 then continued up to complete missed approaches at Mackay and Townsville Airports before it then returned to Amberley.

A41-210 was heard to be using the radio callsign of "Stallion 22".

Meanwhile, also on Thursday 4 February, RAAF Alenia C-27J Spartan transport aircraft A34-003 "Wallaby 16" was noted visiting Bundaberg Airport on what has been reported to be a training flight.

It arrived from and later departed back to Amberley.
