Making an unexpected but most welcome visit to Gladstone Airport late in the afternoon of Sunday 26 July was Royal Australian Navy (RAN) Bell 429 'Global Ranger' helicopter N49-049.
I believe that N49-049 flew North last week via Rockhampton, and in the days since, it has been noted flying around Townsville. I presume that on Sunday afternoon, N49-049 called into Gladstone from Townsville. It was heard to be using its 'usual' radio callsign of "Medusa 49".
After taking on fuel, N49-049 departed to the South.
Thanks to local plane spotters Jamie and Tash for taking the time to capture and send through these great photos!
