Exercise Wallaby 2024 - Royal Brunei Airlines Boeing B787-8 Dreamliners V8-DLB and V8-DLD Both Call into Rockhampton Airport

As predicted, a busy day at Rockhampton Airport on Monday 14 October with two Royal Brunei Airlines Boeing B787-8 Dreamliner aircraft calling in to both transport personnel and equipment in and out of Rocky in support of the Singapore Armed Forces Exercise Wallaby 2024 (XWB24).

During the morning, Dreamliner V8-DLB returned to Rockhampton Airport once again, again touching down direct from Singapore's Changi Airport but as RBA4346.  It later departed back to Changi but as RBA4347.

Later still, fellow Dreamliner V8-DLD made another appearance at Rockhampton Airport during one of the 'waves' of heavy jet passenger charters, touching down from Singapore as RBA4351.

It also later departed back to Singapore but as RBA4352.

As mentioned, both V8-DLB and V8-DLD will most likely return to Rockhampton Airport one final time on Tuesday 15 October which just about wrap up this third 'wave' of charters.  There is another flight expected on Wednesday and then one more at the start of next week but this seems of a stand-alone one-day flight.
