At the time of writing, it appears that the American registered but Australian based Global 6000 bizjet is staying for at least the night on Hamo.

UPDATE!  On Saturday 24 July, N360LA departed back to the Sunshine Coast.

Also on Friday 23 July, Darwin-based Lloyd Aviation Jet Charter Dassault Falcon 900 bizjet VH-PPD was noted departing Hamilton Island Airport for the Gold Coast.  It had arrived from there two days earlier.

Meanwhile, also on Friday 23 July, Careflight (NT) Hawker Beechcraft 400A bizjet VH-EIH as "Careflight 44" called into Longreach Airport, arriving from Darwin and later departing to Sydney. 

It later returned to Darwin but flying via Mount Isa.

Also on Friday 23 July, I was able to grab a quick snap of Aerometrex (South Australia) Cessna 421B Golden Eagle VH-ECF at my local Clermont Aerodrome after it completed another aerial survey flight in the area - believed to be North of Alpha.

And Vanderfield Pilatus PC-12/47 VH-WPH departed Bundaberg Airport for Saint George, Moree and Toowoomba.  It had arrived from Toowoomba the previous day.

Finally, also on Friday 23 July, Hinterland Aviation Cessna 208 Caravan VH-NDC departed Rockhampton Airport for Labona as HND220.  It had arrived into Rocky the previous day - see Blog post below.

It was followed by fellow Hinterland Aviation Cessna 208 Caravans VH-TFQ and VH-TFS as HND320 and HND340 respectively.

VH-NDC then departed Labona for Townsville as HND221.  Both VH-TFQ and VH-TFS returned to Rockhampton Airport.
