Spectacular Photos as AirServices Australia / Pearl Aviation Super King Air VH-FIY Conducts ILS Calibration at Gladstone Airport

Local plane spotters Jamie and Tash have sent through some spectacular images captured at Gladstone Airport on Saturday 5 April as AirServices Australia / Pearl Aviation Hawker Beechcraft B300 Super King Air VH-FIY performed a series of missed approaches and low passes as it conducted a calibration flight of the Gladstone Airport Instrument Landing System (ILS).

VH-FIY actually touched down at Gladstone late on Friday 4 April.

Around mid-morning on Saturday, it departed and performed several passes over the Airport.

Eventually, VH-FIY landed back at Gladstone Airport, took on fuel, and departed North to Townsville.

Some fantastic images of VH-FIY, and we sincerely thank Jamie and Tash for sending these through!
