After collecting a patient, VH-CXJ departed to Brisbane.  It was noted using its 'usual' radio callsign of "Ambulance 452".  VH-CXJ then returned to Townsville in the wee small hours of Wednesday 14 October.

Meanwhile, earlier on Tuesday 13 October, locally-based Embraer EMB-550 Legacy 500 bizjet N142GZ departed Mackay Airport for Brisbane.  Of interest, over the last weekend, N142GZ took on a starring role as Fashion Week Mackay came to Mackay Airport for the glamorous 'Woollam Constructions Runway at the Runway' fashion show.
