The arrival of the Challenger into Rocky has capped of a good couple of weeks of bizjet movements into Central Queensland Airports - here is a quick summary.
On Thursday 10 April, Gulf Coast Aviation Cessna 510 Citation Mustang VH-KXM popped into Longreach Airport from Vanrook Station. It later departed to Bankstown.
The Queensland Government (State of Queensland) Raytheon Hawker 850XP VH-SGY popped into Rockhampton Airport on Wednesday 9 April from Monto. It departed to Brisbane. With the imminent arrival of severe Tropical Cyclone Ita in Far North Queensland, VH-SGY has spent the latter part of the week at Cooktown, Cairns and Townsville.
Over on Hamilton Island, Gold Coast-based Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign VH-VPL popped in briefly from the Gold Coast last Friday 4 April. Also touching down last Friday was TWC Logistics Hawker Beechcraft 390 Premier 1 VH-TGQ. It arrived from Archerfield and departed back there on Monday 7 April. Also on Monday, Balmoral Air-operated Dassault Falcon 2000EX F-GZLX visited Hamo from Bankstown.
Finally, it's also worth mentioning (again!) the visit to Gladstone of MJets Thailand Gulfstream G-V bizjet HS-WEH, which arrived from Townsville last Thursday 3 April, and departed to Brisbane on Friday 4 April.
