Election Specials

[Greg Hyde]

Anyone know if there are any special election charters ?

In the past there has been F100 & Bae146.

Thanks

I think this has been posted before but for the last 3 weeks Air North E-170 VH-SWO, Skytraders A-319 VH-VHD, and Ba-146 ZK-ECO.

RAAF 737 (A36-001) and Bae-146 (ZK-ECO) both arrived Townsville yesterday from Cairns as Julia Gillard is in Townsville today. I spotted both around 11am this morning parked at the military apron when I drove past the airport.

It seems A36-001 has since departed and ZK-ECO is still here. I believe Julia is overnighting in Townsville and departs tomorrow morning.

ZK-ECO has also now departed.

Looks like Julia has left town.

So the Australian PM flys in a New Zealand registered aircraft??

Is RAAF 737 (A36-002) also used for politicians?

I thought it was the journalists that go in the 146 and the PM goes in the RAAF BBJ
