It's last minute but with such a fast changing real world environment, we need to move quickly to keep up! Welcome back to VATPAC's newest event series, Friday Night Live!
We're bringing you some Friday Night Entertainment that the pubs and clubs can't! Visit a new location or perhaps an old favourite, the possibilities are endless.
This Week
This week, we're heading to Rockhampton. Explore the Queensland outback flying GA, rip down in a Dash 8 from Cairns or fly a jet from further South. There are plenty of possibilities for fun!
Rockhampton is a Regional Queensland airport with direct services to Brisbane, Cairns, Townsville and Mackay. They see a mixture of Jets and Props which makes this airport busy enough to have a Tower and ground controller.
