Rockhampton Airport Tower Redevelopment and Upcoming Charter News

Designs for Rockhampton Airport's new control tower have been released with it being suggested that the new 21 metre tall tower will be one of the most high-tech air traffic control centres in the world. The full story and pictures can be found on the Rockhampton Morning Bulletin website HERE.
