Rare Visit to Gladstone Airport by Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) Pilatus PC-12/45 VH-FDC

Caught visiting Gladstone Airport late on Sunday 22 March was Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) Pilatus PC-12/45 VH-FDC ("FlyDoc 426").

This is the first time that a photo of an RFDS PC-12 at Gladstone Airport has featured on the CQ Plane Spotting Blog, and local plane spotters Jamie and Tash were on hand to capture a little piece of history.

VH-FDC arrived at Gladstone from Longreach, and later departed back to its Charleville base.  Of interest it had completed a flight from Charleville to Birdsville and back before it ventured to Longreach.

Sincere thanks to Jamie and Tash for capturing these stunning photos from late on Sunday!  They are awesome!
