Townsville plane spotter Dave - who has been in Mackay for work this week - spotted three MRH-90s at Mackay Airport.  They were noted to be A40-005, A40-006 - which were both previously noted at Rockhampton and seen to be heading to Townsville on Monday - along with A40-018, which joined the other two, this time heading South.

After leaving Mackay, the trio - flying together under the callsign "Crusader" - possibly landed at Rockhampton before they were noted heading further South to Oakey.
