Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Boeing B737-7ES / E-7A Wedgetail AEW&C A30-006 Missed Approach at Rockhampton Airport

Almost two weeks after it did the same, on Wednesday 30 August, Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Boeing B737-7ES / E-7A Wedgetail Airborne Early Warning & Control (AEW&C) aircraft A30-006 was back in CQ and again completed a low overshoot (missed approach) at Rockhampton Airport.

On this occasion, A30-006 was flying as "Wedgetail 04" and flew up to Rockhampton from the South.  After completing the airwork, the Wedgetail departed towards the South and was later noted completing a missed approach at RAAF Base Amberley before it returned to RAAF Base Williamtown.

Sincere thanks once again to local plane spotters Scott H and Kayanne H for again taking the time to capture and send through these great photos!
