Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Boeing C-17A Globemaster III A41-209 Completes a Missed Approach at Rockhampton Airport

On Wednesday 5 August, Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Boeing C-17A Globemaster III A41-209 made its second visit to the beef capital this week and was spotted as it completed a missed approach and low overshoot at Rockhampton Airport.  It was heard to be flying as "Stallion 24".

It appears that the Globemaster earlier departed from RAAF Base Amberley and took an inland route up to Rocky.  After completing the missed approach at Rockhampton Airport, A41-209 then again headed inland before turning back towards the coast and returning to Amberley.
