New GBJ Nominees (Navair Flight Operations) Textron (Cessna) 510 Citation Mustang Bizjet VH-IEQ Calls into Proserpine (Whitsunday Coast) Airport - Plus More!

On Thursday 9 September, new GBJ Nominees (Navair Flight Operations) Textron Aviation (Cessna) 510 Citation Mustang bizjet VH-IEQ was noted visiting Proserpine (Whitsunday Coast) Airport.


The new little bizjet looked to arrive from and later depart back to Bankstown via the Sunshine Coast.

It appears that VH-IEQ only arrived into Australia at Bankstown in mid-July this year.  The visit to Prosie is it's first visit into Central Queensland.

Meanwhile, also on Thursday 9 September, the often visiting American-registered Eclipse EA500 bizjet N257AK departed the Whitsunday Airport at Shute Harbour bound for Archerfield.

It had flown up from there on Monday 6 September.

While Machjet (Machjet International) Cessna 525 Citation CJ1 bizjet VH-SIY was noted visiting Hamilton Island Airport from its Sunshine Coast base.

And Zauner Aviation Pilatus PC-12/47E VH-FMM called into Hamilton Island Airport as well but from its Albury base.  It then departed to Mount Gambier and Adelaide in South Australia.

Finally, also on Thursday 9 September, Seair Pacific / Istlecote Cessna 208 Caravan VH-TQW was noted flying up from Hervey Bay (Fraser Coast) Airport to Middlemount Aerodrome before flying back down to Maryborough and Hervey Bay Airports.

Brisbane-based Beech 58 Baron VH-VSA called into Longreach Airport from Roma Airport before then departing to Barkley Downs. 

BPW Aviation / Airspeed Aviation Beech 58 Baron VH-SQC flew up to Mackay Airport from Tamworth.  It then departed to Archerfield before returning to Tamworth.

And Pilatus PC-12/45 VH-PID was back in the region, flying up from its Toowoomba base to Biloela / Thangool, Emerald and Mackay Airports.

UPDATE!  On Friday 10 September, VH-PID departed Mackay Airport for Dunk Island, Gympie and Toowoomba.

Sincere thanks to the Sunshine Coast Plane Spotting Facebook page for allowing us to share their great photo of VH-IEQ!
