DJ E170 at ROK this morning

Just saw the new E-Jet this morning departing Rockhampton for Mackay with call sign DJ 9103.
Must be the start of route proving before entry into serivce in October

Lots of flights being done by the E170 over the next few weeks - flight crew training, cabin crew training, and practice for the ground crew/ports in handling etc... VH-ZHA went to CBR and back yesterday

Call me crazy, but I think most of the destinations the jungle jet has been going for route proving will be where they're looking at setting up a regular route on (unless its purely for training only)...just maybe...
