It was a Friday morning and they were not flying. They were not operating on any of the 4 frequencies that I was monitoring, not on OzRunways, AvPlan, ADSB-IN or FR24. Safe to say that they were not operating and I of course took that into considering before making above comments.

As a matter of interest, for giggles it’s worth checking how the PC21’s operate down that way if you’re considering going over there. You’ll notice that they will operate as a single aircraft in each of the training zones, Maffra, Jack Smith’s Lake and Paynesville are the most common areas.

Of course, I got my clearance, so it can’t have been chockers.
