Falconair Dassault 900 Falcon Mystere Bizjet VH-CAD Pops into Proserpine (Whitsunday Coast) Airport

On Wednesday 25 March, recently registered Falconair (NSW) Dassault 900 Falcon Mystere bizjet VH-CAD was noted visiting Proserpine (Whitsunday Coast) Airport.  It looked to arrive direct from its Bankstown base.

After an hour or so on the ground, VH-CAD returned to Bankstown.

Of interest, VH-CAD was registered to the New South Wales-based Falconair in December 2019 having been delivered to Sydney as N922JW in late November last year.

It appears that VH-CAD has replaced Falconair's two Dassault Falcon 20F bizjets VH-FAI and VH-PNY with the regular visitors to Central Queensland re-registered and possibly departing Australia in the middle of November 2019.

Both aircraft entered the American Aircraft Register with VH-FAI becoming N957CJ and VH-PNY becoming N380CJ.

Meanwhile, it's worth mentioning that over at the Whitsunday Airport at Shute Harbour, often visiting  American-registered Eclipse EA500 bizjet N257AK was noted arriving back from Tamworth in New South Wales on Tuesday 24 March.  It had flown south just over a week ago.

UPDATE!  On Thursday 26 March, N257AK departed the Whitsunday Airport and flew to Archerfield.

Sincere thanks to Sydney-based specialist aviation photographer Grahame Hutchison for allowing us to share his great photo of VH-CAD.
