Toll Freight Aviation ATR 42-300F VH-TOX Surprise Visit to Mackay Airport

A surprise visitor to Mackay Airport early on Tuesday 31 December with Toll Freight Aviation ATR 42-300F VH-TOX arriving from Brisbane while operating as TFX6.  The flight usually now bypasses Mackay Airport and continues direct to Townsville.

After an hour on the ground, VH-TOX departed Mackay Airport and indeed continued to Townsville again as TFX6.

The exact reason for the 'diversion' is unclear but it appears that no 'usual' Toll Freight Metro aircraft arrived into Mackay Airport early on Tuesday 31 December so the visit may well have been planned!
