The Wedgetail looked to depart RAAF Base Williamtown and fly up to Emerald Airport where it was videoed below completing a missed approach.


A30-005 then flew towards the Whitsundays and looked to complete airwork including a couple of missed approaches at Hamilton Island Airport.

It then returned to Williamtown.
