Australian Army Boeing CH-47F 'Foxtrot' Chinook Helicopters A15-302 & A15-304 Back at Rockhampton Airport - Also Returning from Avalon!

On Saturday 9 March, Australian Army Boeing CH-47F 'Foxtrot' Chinook helicopters A15-302 and A15-304 were noted passing through Rockhampton Airport.  Both Chinooks - along with A15-301 which passed through Rocky yesterday - were all returning to Townsville following their participation in the Australian International Airshow at Avalon Airport.


First to visit was A15-304 which was heard to be flying as "Madcow 379" and was noted arriving into Rocky from the South.  After taking on fuel, it departed to Townsville.

Then A15-302 arrived from the Sunshine Coast (where it is photographed above) flying as "Brahman 307".  After taking on fuel, it too departed to Townsville.

As mentioned below, both Chinooks A15-302 and A15-304 participated in the airborne displays and Australian Defence Force (ADF) Showcase during the Australian International Airshow at Avalon Airport.
