A39-002 was noted to be flying as "Dragon 61".
And as shown, A39-002 still wears additional decals to commemorate the RAAF's 100th anniversary.

Meanwhile, also on Tuesday 22 June, fellow RAAF Airbus A330-200 / KC-30A MRTT A39-004 spent more than four hours flying off the South-East Queensland coast completing air-to-air refuelling exercises, including with RAAF Boeing C-17A Globemaster III transport aircraft A41-212 and A41-207 which were both also noted completing a touch-and-gos at Bundaberg Airport.
A41-212 was flying as "Stallion 74" and flew up from Amberley to complete the touch-and-go at Bundaberg Airport before heading off the coast to join the KC-30A. Both later returned to Amberley.

While after dark, A41-207 as "Stallion 73" departed Amberley to join the KC-30A before it then flew up to Bundaberg Airport where it looked to land, taxi back to the end of the Runway, and then depart back to Amberley.
