A nice pair of locally-based corporate bizjets were noted arriving into Hamilton Island on Friday 3 November including Homada Pty Ltd Cessna 560XL Citation XLS VH-XCU which arrived into Hamo from Melbourne (Moorabbin) via Melbourne (Essendon).

A little later in the day, ADD Aviation Services (Australian Corporate Jet Centres) Raytheon Hawker 800XP VH-OFJ was also noted arriving into Hamilton Island Airport from Essendon.

Meanwhile, a little smaller that a bizjet but also arriving into Hamilton Island Airport on Friday 3 November were Piper PA-24-260 VH-TMZ which arrived from its Hervey Bay (Fraser Coast) Airport base, along with Mount Gambier (South Australia) based Cessna 182 VH-YZY which arrived from there via Charleville.

Finally, earlier in the week on Monday 30 October, Marcplan Charter Embraer EMB-135BJ Legacy bizjet VH-VLT was noted arriving into Hamilton Island Airport from the South.

It departed to Hobart on Wednesday 1 November and was photographed (above) by Brisbane-based plane spotter Brendan B.
