Nauru Airlines Boeing B737-319 VH-XNU Calls into Mackay Airport - Plus More!

On Tuesday 28 January, Nauru Airlines 'classic' Boeing B737-319 VH-XNU was spotted on the ground soon after arriving into Mackay Airport from Brisbane as RON642.  After some time on the ground, it returned to Brisbane after dark but as RON643.

It has been suggested that this flight - like the one by Air Nauru B737-300 VH-PNI last week - was a closed Fly-in Fly-out (FIFO) charter flight.
