Surprise! Surveillance Australia / Australian Customs and Border Protection Service Dash-8-200s VH-ZZI & VH-ZZJ at Rockhampton Airport Wednesday Morning


A nice surprise for local plane spotters early on Wednesday 12 March in the form of a pair of Surveillance Australia / Australian Customs and Border Protection Service Dash-8-200s parked on the Northern end of the Rockhampton Airport apron.  The Dash-8s were VH-ZZI and VH-ZZJ.



VH-ZZI reportedly arrived into Rockhampton late on Tuesday 11 March from parts unknown after completing a surveillance sortie, while VH-ZZJ positioned into Rocky late from Cairns.  



Eventually on Wednesday, VH-ZZJ departed out of rocky on a surveillance sortie, while VH-ZZI was believed to have departed North to Townsville, and possibly eventually, Cairns, on a re-positioning flight.

Certainly a nice sight, and sincere thanks to 'IAD' for capturing and sending through these great photos!
