A C-130J from Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Base Richmond will conduct low-level flying activities in the Townsville and Collinsville, Queensland (QLD) areas on 8 August, 2025. The RAAF appreciates the support from local communities.

The low-level flying activities will be conducted within strict safety and operational guidelines.

Flying is subject to change due to variables such as air traffic control requirements, weather, and other aviation considerations.

Noise reduction and the environment are vital considerations in the planning and conduct of military flying.
