Polet Aviakompania (Polet Airlines) Antonov AN-124 Due Into Rockhampton Airport This Week

It has been rumoured and reported that a Polet Aviakompania (Polet Airlines) Antonov AN-124 will be touching down at Rockhampton Airport about mid-morning on Thursday 28 November.

The Antonov will be transporting the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) Boeing AH-64D Apache helicopters back to Singapore following the conclusion this week of the Singapore Armed Force's Exercise Wallaby 2013.

It is expected that the Antonov - should it arrive as expected Thursday morning - will depart early Friday morning.

The final 'wave' of heavy jet troop charters between Rockhampton and Singapore is also expected to commence some time this week or next week.  One reports suggests that a Qantas Airways Boeing B747-400 will again be operating at least three of the charters.
