Tail fin and elevators removed. Converted for geophysical survey work, and normally equipped with a magnetometer tail ‘stinger’, used for measuring variations in the Earth’s magnetic field due to changes in the magnetite content of the rock. This enables it to detect underground ore bodies. Built in 1978. Ex N6467B.

These two PC-12s were built in 2001, and seem to have been withdrawn from RFDS service – they are parked in the aircraft boneyard area near runway 24R. VH-VWO has not flown since 14 February 2014. VH-KWO has not flown since late March 2014. The RFDS recently took delivery of two new PC-12/47E aircraft to replace older PC-12s, so these two aircraft could soon be sold.

Floats from Cessna 208 Caravan VH-OPH are sitting next to it. This was the last Grumman Albatross built. A total of 418 Grumman Albatross aircraft were built between 1947 and 1961. Built in 1961, ex Bu No 148329, 9056 (JMSDF), N88999, PK-PAM, N26PR, N42MY. Recently moved, this Albatross is now parked near Dunn Aviation (the former airport fire station). Since arriving at Jandakot in April 2012, it only made a few flights during February 2013. With a maximum take-off weight of 13882kg, it exceeds the weight limits for operation from Jandakot, and had to apply for special dispensation to be parked here. The owner, Mack McCormack, initially planned to base the Albatross in Broome and use the aircraft to fly tourist and charter flights in and around the Kimberley region of Western Australia. Mr McCormack later announced that he intended to begin flying boat flights Perth’s Swan River to the Abrolhos Islands, off the coast of Geraldton from April 2013, with operations to be expanded into the Kimberley region later. Despite some promotional flights from Geraldton to the Abrolhos Islands in February 2013, the aircraft has since remained on the ground at Jandakot Airport.
