VH-XWQ touched down directly from Cairns as UTY3381 and looked to carry the players and officials of the Northern Pride Rugby League team to Mackay to take on the local Mackay Cutters in the latest round of the Queensland Rugby League's Intrust Super Cup Competition.

After the match, which saw the Northern Pride suffer a defeat at the hands of the locals, VH-XWQ returned to Cairns after dark as UTY3382.
