Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Boeing B737-7ES / E-7A Wedgetail A30-003 Completes Missed Approach at Rockhampton Airport

On Tuesday 6 October, Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Boeing B737-7ES / E-7A Wedgetail Airborne Early Warning & Control (AEW&C) aircraft A30-003 was spotted as it completed airwork including a missed approach and low overshoot at Rockhampton Airport.





It appears that the Wedgetail flew up from RAAF Base Williamtown at Newcastle direct to Rockhampton via overhead Gladstone. After completing the airwork, A30-003 departed Rockhampton Airport and returned back directly to Williamtown.



Of interest, A30-003 was heard to be using the radio callsign of "Mitchel 02".

Sincere thanks to local plane spotter Kayanne H for allowing us to share these great photos!
