The Twin Otter has only recently entered the Canadian National Aviation Registry as C-GSGP registered to Sander Geophysics Limited of Ottawa. It had previously been registered to P2-MFB and was operated by the Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF) in Papua New Guinea.
It was one of two Twin Otters (pictured above) that had been put up for sale stored at Mareeba. The other is DHC-6-200 P2-MFU.
UPDATE! On Wednesday 10 August, C-GSGP departed Mackay Airport for Toowoomba and Orange in New South Wales.
Meanwhile, also on Tuesday 9 August, a couple of nice corporate bizjets were noted also visiting Mackay Airport.
Recently registered Navair Flight Operations Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100 VH-HQK visited Mackay Airport from Dubbo.
It appears that VH-HQK was only delivered into Australia via Darwin at the end of July.
While Mitchell Water Cessna 525 Citation M2 bizjet VH-WMY made an early departure for Chinchilla Aerodrome and then Archerfield. It had arrived the previous day from Melbourne (Moorabbin), Melbourne (Essendon), Miles and Dalby Airports.
And a medical evacuation bizjet in the form of LifeFlight (Aeromed) Bombardier Challenger 604 bizjet VH-URR "Ambulance 604" visited Longreach Airport, arriving from Townsville and Mount Isa and later departing to Brisbane.
NOTE! We will now incorporate LifeFlight bizjet visits into these daily digests as opposed to writing a separate post for each visit!
Meanwhile, also on Tuesday 9 August, Southern Air Beech 1900 VH-VSO flew up to Moranbah Airport once again from West Sale and Bourke on its weekly Fly-in Fly-out (FIFO) charter flight. It later returned down there and ended up at Melbourne (Moorabbin).
