While Gulf Aircraft Textron Aviation (Cessna) 208 Caravan VH-PYO looked to depart the Whitsunday Airport at Shute Harbour for the South.

RDO Equipment Co. Pilatus PC-12/47 VH-WPH departed Emerald Airport for Archerfield and Toowoomba.  It arrived from these places yesterday.

The Capricorn Helicopter Rescue Service (CHRS) (Babcock Mission Critical Services Australasia) Agusta S.P.A. AW139 Helicopter VH-YXR departed Rockhampton Airport for the Sunshine Coast and Redcliffe. 

And McDermott Aviation Bell 214ST helicopter N512EV landed at Emerald Airport from the Sunshine Coast. It is up for flood work and will no doubt be joined by other helicopters in the coming days.

Finally, also on Friday 28 March, Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Dassault Falcon 7X bizjet A56-001 as "Envoy 95" landed at Bundaberg Airport from Canberra. 

UPDATE!  On Saturday 29 March, A56-001 departed Bundaberg Airport for Canberra but as "Envoy 99".

I assume with the Federal Election being called today, we will see many more RAAF VIP aircraft and support aircraft in the region over the next month or so!
