It appears that VH-TOQ initially touched down at Mackay Airport from Brisbane early on both Thursday 26 March and again on Friday 27 March (as shown) while operating as TFX6. After an hour on the ground, it departed Mackay Airport and continued to Townsville both days again as TFX6.
It looks like however that VH-TOQ arrived back into Mackay Airport from Townsville during the early evening on only Friday 27 March but as TFX5. After some time on the ground, it departed Mackay Airport and continued to Brisbane again as TFX5.
It also appears that VH-TOQ also called into Mackay Airport as TFX5 from Townsville also last Friday 20 March while enroute to Brisbane.
UPDATE! On Tuesday 31 March, VH-TOQ called into Mackay Airport one more time while flying from Brisbane to Townsville as TFX6.
These flights usually bypass Mackay Airport and operate direct between Brisbane and Townsville. The exact reason for these visits is unclear but it appears that it could be due extra freight coming to the region as it appears that the 'usual' Toll Freight Metro aircraft also arrived into Mackay Airport on most of these days.
Sincere thanks to local plane spotter 'JM' who was at the right place at the right time to capture these great photos!
