On Sunday 19 November, leader of the Liberal National Party of Queensland Tim Nicholls was noted at arriving into Bundaberg Airport.  Again he, and support staff and media, were noted to be flying on board Fly Corporate (Corporate Air) SAAB 340B+ (WT) VH-VEP and touched down from Brisbane.

Then on Monday 20 November, VH-VEP was noted departing Bundaberg Airport for Mackay Airport.  After Mr Nicholls completed more campaigning, VH-VEP then returned to Brisbane.

Meanwhile, late on Monday 20 November, Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk returned to the hustings in Central Queensland once again.  This time, she arrived into Mackay Airport from Cairns and Townsville on board The Queensland Government (State of Queensland) Raytheon Hawker 850XP bizjet VH-SGY.

As has been the case over the last couple of weeks, VH-SGY was joined by a pair of Super King Air turboprops – Easternwell Group Beech B300 Super King Air VH-EWQ and Austrek Aviation Beech B200 Super King Air VH-ZGD – which also both arrived into Mackay Airport from Cairns and Townsville late on Monday 20 November.

All three aircraft appear to be staying for the night in the sugar city.
