Question for Steve Rowell

Hi Steve, just wondering if you could answer a question that’s baffled me for the last seven years.

When I lived in Australia, I stopped at a village just to the North of Geelong (vic). I can’t remember the frequency that it occured but quite regularly a Qantas 747 would circle around Geelong bay several times quite low. I know it wasnt landing at Tullamarine or anything but as I say, I had seen it circling round the bay. The only solution I could come up with is it that it is something to do with Avalon and they were testing or training pilots??

Thankyou in advance,

Graham
