What is Regionals and Twins?
Taking the focus off major airports and the big jets, Regionals and Twins celebrates both Australia's vast network of inland and outback hubs and the aircraft that service them.
You'll need a prop, turbo-prop or small business jet to get in and out of most of the places visited in a Regionals and Twins event but you'll get to enjoy some spectacular scenery as you cruise along at low levels. Controllers are also taken out of their comfort zone as ATC often sees procedural positions.
This week's Details
This month we'll be focussing on Townsville. Townsville is serviced by Airnorth, Alliance, JetGO, REX, Qantaslink and all the major airlines. Townsville is a common use civilian and defence facility, sharing access with RAAF Base Townsville.
