Exercise Wallaby 2025 - Royal Brunei Airlines Boeing B787-8 Dreamliners V8-DLE and V8-DLC Both Call into Rockhampton Airport

On Tuesday 30 September, two Royal Brunei Airlines Boeing B787-8 Dreamliner aircraft both called into Rockhampton Airport to transport personnel and equipment into Rocky in support of the Singapore Armed Forces Exercise Wallaby 2025 (XWB25).

During the morning, Dreamliner V8-DLE (pictured) arrived into Rockhampton Airport touching down direct from Singapore's Changi Airport as RBA4228.  It later departed back to Changi but as RBA4229.

Of interest, on Monday 29 September, V8-DLE visited once again from Singapore as RBA4226/7.

But later on Tuesday 30 September, fellow Dreamliner V8-DLC also touched down at Rockhampton Airport, but from Brunei as RBA4235.

It also later departed back to Singapore but as RBA4236.

It is expected that both V8-DLE and V8-DLC will return to Rockhampton Airport on Wednesday 1 October with only one returning on Thursday 2 October which will then see the conclusion of the second 'wave' of charter flights in support of the Singapore Armed Forces Exercise Wallaby 2025 (XWB25).
