Nearly Forgot! Royal Australian Navy (RAN) Bell 429 'Global Ranger' Helicopter - N49-049 - Calls into Rockhampton Airport Wednesday

Nearly forgot to mention that while local plane spotter Kayanne H was watching a school sports day, she spotted a single Royal Australian Navy (RAN) Bell 429 'Global Ranger' Helicopter call into Rockhampton Airport on Wednesday 22 July from the South.

Research has suggested that the chopper was using the callsign "Medusa 49" possibly making it N49-049.  Kayanne reports that "Medusa 49" departed Rockhampton to the North a couple of hours after it arrived.
