Aerotech Aircraft Holdings (Aerotech Helicopters) Pickering Aviation (Sikorsky) UH-60A Black Hawk helicopter VH-UHS "Helitack 513" Arrives into Bundabreg Airport - Plus More!

On Friday 28 February, Aerotech Aircraft Holdings (Aerotech Helicopters) Pickering Aviation (Sikorsky) UH-60A Black Hawk helicopter VH-UHS "Helitack 513" was noted landing at Bundaberg Airport.  It looked to fly up from Adelaide (Parafield), Mildura, Griffith, Dubbo, Moree and Toowoomba.


It has since been reported that the Black Hawk has arrived into Queensland in preparation for relief efforts following the expected landfall of Tropical Cyclone Alfred which is presently off the Queensland coast.

While the Queensland Government (State of Queensland) Beech B300C Super King Air 350 VH-8PH arrived into Rockhampton Airport from Cairns and then departed to Brisbane. 

And a fan-favourite with Piper PA-30 Twin Comanche B VH-SEX arriving into Rockhampton Airport from Pittsworth and Toowoomba.  It later returned to Pittsworth.

Finally, also on Friday 28 February, a pair of Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Boeing C-17A Globemaster III transport aircraft were noted flying together in the region at low level while on a flight out of and back to RAAF Base Amberley.  

They were noted to be A41-208 and A41-210 and flew as "Charger" up from Amberley to North-East of Mackay at flight levels before they then turned inland to descend to low level and then flew down to West of Rockhampton before climbing back to flight levels and returning to Amberley.
