RACQ LifeFlight Aero Medical Bizjets - LearJet 45 VH-VVI "Ambulance 451" & Challenger 604 VH-OFA "Ambulance 614" - Pop into Central Queensland Airports

During the afternoon on Saturday 2 May, LifeFlight (Aeromed) LearJet 45 bizjet VH-VVI "Ambulance 451" was noted back in the region, photographed calling into Mackay Airport from Townsville.  After a couple of hours on the ground, it then departed to Bundaberg Airport.

After a further hour on the ground at Bundy, it departed to Brisbane before later returning to Townsville.

Meanwhile, a little earlier also on Saturday 2 May, LifeFlight (Aeromed) recently acquired Canadair CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604 bizjet VH-OFA "Ambulance 614" was noted visiting Emerald Airport.  It looked to arrive from and later depart back to Brisbane.

UPDATE!  In the wee small hours of Sunday 3 May, fellow LifeFlight (Aeromed) Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604 bizjet VH-URR "Ambulance 604" was noted visiting Rockhampton Airport.  It looked to originally fly down from Townsville via Cairns to Brisbane before calling into Rockhampton Airport.  After some time on the ground, VH-URR “Ambulance 604” then departed Rockhampton Airport and returned to Townsville.
