Low flying Conquest , Perth
As the title suggests, I was curious why a C-441 would be flying west, parallel with Reid Hwy this morning at about 300 agl? Anyone else see it or offer insights?
Saw the same aircraft over the top of the Nedlands Golf Course at what looked like 200-300 feet heading North. Both engines running.
Heard it before I saw it so I knew it was going to be low

>They are checking for obstacles in the approach splays. They do have a habit of suddenly appearing

I was driving East up Greenmount Hill yesterday morning about 0930 hrs when the Conquest appeared from behind me, to my left, heading NE at a height that absolutely astonished me.
Couldn't have been any more than 250' above the face of the Darling scarp. I'm amazed the police weren't overwhelmed with calls about a twin-engine aircraft going down!
