I was at OOL last night and the aircraft is there at the moment. Nice pics Andrew - love the noise and smoke when it takes off!

It appears as Gold Coast is where the aircraft parks for long stays(owner lives on the Coast) and Brisbane is it's operational base where the company is headquartered.

Have a nice holiday Sarah.

Gday mate.

Dont quote me on it but i got told about that aircraft is owned by the same bloke that is funding the Gold Coast United Soccer Team for the A-League. He may have been here negotiating with some Sydney Siders for sponsorship or whatever. Thats why its allways seen at the GC.

Tim,

I think you'll find that given the fact that Lloyd alluded to the owner living on the Gold Coast - that would be the reason it is always at OOL...


Grant - Valid observation by Tim. No need to argue the point any further - mod

Tim is Correct though, the owner does live on the Gold Coast but he also is helping fund and is the plane is sometimes used to transport the team around Aus for the Gold Coast Soccer A-League Team
