Pacific Air Express Australia Boeing B757-200F Freighter VH-PQA Back at Rockhampton Airport

Precisely a fortnight after its previous visit, on Thursday 14 February, the Pacific Air Express Australia Boeing B757-225(PCF) Freighter VH-PQA was twice noted visiting Rockhampton Airport on what appeared to be another pair of training flights.

VH-PQA initially arrived into Rocky from Brisbane as 'PCF32' / "Pacific 32" and parked on Gate 6 on the Southern end of the Rockhampton Airport parking apron.  It then returned to Brisbane as 'PCF33' / "Pacific 33".

Then, later on Thursday 14 February, VH-PQA was back in the skies above Rocky, again flying up from Brisbane but as 'PCF34' / "Pacific 34" but on this flight, it didn't land and instead completed two missed approaches at Rockhampton Airport.  After the second missed approach, it returned to Brisbane but as 'PCF35' / "Pacific 35".
