Flying circles around YBBN

[Cralis]

Anyone know what this guy might have been doing? Came in from Amberley, and has being doing pretty perfect circles around YBBN for quite some time now.

Flight testing navaids?

Trying to figure out how to restart his left engine?




Yes, I know...not very helpful.


Does Flight Calibration use a King Air 350.

haha.. Enjoyed the left engine one! Thanks.

maggot - so they'll (maybe) be testing something on the aircraft?

Nah verifying the ground based signals

Quite routine fwiw. I imagine its a certification requirement.

ILS calibration at Toowoomba followed by VOR calibration at Brisbane.

I think they'd run out of perfect circles at YBBN so he's making a few more for them.

What did he say to do after "Intercept the 5 DME arc" ?????…………...

Undoubtedly chemical spraying...
