RAAF 737s
Hi all,
Just moved backed to Aussie and have heard the RAAF B737's in and out of Sydney using different callsigns (Enoy, Regent and Wisdom today). I know they have assigned to SQN34 in Canberra but how are the callsigns asigned (im assuming the pilots have their own number as the flight number?). Are both 737's in Australia at the moment as I heard ScoMo arrive back on the A330 earlier as Aussie 346. Cheers Mark |
Hi Mark
RAAF VIP squadron callsigns change depending on task and passengers, specifically: Envoy is used for a VIP such as PM etc Regent is used when it’s a royal family member or rep Wisdom is the squadron callsign for air work etc |

I know it’s a long shot and the chance are very slim.
Is there any cabin photos of the RAAF 737BBJ, KC30 vip, Falcon 7x and the now retired Challenger 604. Surely they are not as nice as some other government and royal aircraft that have cabin photos online. |
Apologies but task & callsign breakdown information is not in the public domain for a reason. I'm sure you can understand why.
The callsigns allocated to 34SQN can be found in the Airservices Manual of Air Traffic Services, on page 6.2.2.1 however. |

We have now been made aware of the two new 737MAX 8 BBJ that will replace the current BBJ’s
4 year old N516BJ/64061 .6 month old N786BJ/67959 Both are currently in France since July. https://www.planespotters.net/airfor...lian-Air-Force |

Does anyone know the future registrations of the two new Boeing 737MAXs for the RAAF? I'm looking forward to seeing them in Australia.
|
Presumably A36-003 & 4

516BJ joined 786 in France this week, after a quick diversion to ZRH. https://www.flightaware.com/live/flight/N516BJ

Both N786BJ and N787BJ have been spotted painted in new livery

A62-001 has had a 02:21 test flight at Basel after the cabin fit out.
|
A62-001 had another test flight in Basel yesterday.

It looks so much nicer in my opinion than the current BBJ's.
Lovely.:) |
