RAAF A330 at BNE

[Brandon Giacomin]

EC-333 has been doing a few test flights out of Brissy in the last two days.
Yesterday she departed as CASA002 at 1328 and had to make an emergency landing an hour later due to landing gear problems.
And today she departed at 1149 (with the same callsign), did circuits out to sea at FL400 came back did a missed approach, did two touch and goes at Amberley and came back arriving at 1522.
Pics can be found here on pg4 and 5.

I must have missed something. Since when were these tankers redesignated EC-333. I thought they were known as KC-30s
