** FIRST VISIT TO PERTH **
Arrived from Singapore-Seletar at 13:29 after a flight of just over 5 hours, using its registration as the callsign.
Hawker Pacific Asia, based at Seletar, is the first Embraer Authorised Service Centre in Asia Pacific certified for the full range of Embraer Executive Jets.

N42MY was built in 1961 as the last of 418 Grumman Albatross aircraft produced.
