kianhong 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2009 Hey KH. I think that's the main display. The rehearsal was on friday and the actual display was on saturday afternoon. Ha ... I have no ideas. Flew to Townsville again on 29 Sept. While T-birds and KC-10 tanker were gone, the two C17s were still there. Sharing something closer to home. Introducing the 'Missionator'!!! Not the most pretty aircraft of the lot, but i think the decal is pretty cool. Thanks Liam for the info and the kind people of Aeromil Pacific. This Beech 1900D demonstrator is on tour in Australia as part of a world-wide tour. The arrival of 'Missionator' is also coincide with the Regional Aviation Association of Australia (RAAA)convention being held at Hyatt Regency Coolum, Sunshine Coast. And here's some side catches. One pretty mean looking and fast aircraft - Cessna Citation X (VH_XCJ). Citation VII (VH_LYM) Fairchild Metro IV (VH_TAG) And attendees of the convention were entertained with the low pass of a P-51 Mustang and Fokker 100. But unfortunately sun already set at the time of the low fly-pass. VH-FKA from Alliance did the honour. Pretty impressive to see it bout 100ft off the ground. Thanks for viewing. Enjoy.

kianhong 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2009 Sharing a few photos from the GA apron of YBBN. Always happy to see my fav bizjet - G550 around. (B-KCK) Saab 340B - a rather popular type among OZ regional airlines and cargo operator. Another popular type for the smaller operators - Fairchild Metro. This type has some rather infamous nickname like Meatray, Death Tube, Flyin' Cigar, Stick Creature, Death pencil, lawn dart, fright tube etc etc And two window view photos dedicated to Chaity. Earth curvature from FL440. Flying into the sunset. Enjoy. Thanks for viewing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
