The MRTT had originally departed from RAAF Base Amberley and flew all the way up to Townsville where it landed for a short time. A39-004 then flew back South via the airwork at Rockhampton Airport and then onwards back to Amberley.
A39-004 was heard to be using the radio callsign of "Dragon 21".
Of interest, fellow RAAF KC-30A MRTT A39-005 as "Dragon 20" was also in the air at the same time, also flying out of Amberley but all the way up to Cairns. It then returned directly to Amberley.
Sincere thanks to local plane spotter Scott H who was at the right place at the right time to capture these great photos!
