RAAF VIP 34 Squadron Aircraft at CQ Airports - Dassault Falcon 7X A56-003 at Maryborough and Rockhampton Airports - Boeing B737-700BBJ A36-002 at Bundaberg Airport

Early on Friday 15 November, Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Dassault Falcon 7X bizjet A56-003 was noted arriving into Maryborough Airport as "Envoy 46" from Canberra.  After a couple of hours on the ground, it continued to Rockhampton Airport where local plane spotter 'IAD' was on hand to capture a couple of photos soon after its arrival.

During the middle part of the afternoon, A56-003 departed Rockhampton Airport for Wagga Wagga in New South Wales before it then returned to Canberra.

Meanwhile, also on Friday 15 November, Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Boeing B737-7DF(BBJ) A36-002 was noted touching down at Bundaberg Airport from Canberra and the Ballina / Byron Bay Gateway Airport  as "Envoy 93".

After an hour on the ground, A36-002 departed Bundaberg Airport and returned to Canberra.

Finally, it's worth noting that also on Friday 15 November, one final RAAF visitor to CQ in the form of Lockheed C-130J-30 Hercules transport aircraft A97-465 was noted completing a missed approach at Rockhampton Airport as "Ausy 794".  It appeared to come up from RAAF Base Richmond and continued to Townsville after completing the airwork at Rocky.

Sincere thanks to local plane spotter 'IAD' for taking the time to capture and send through these great photos!
