The Royal Australian Air Force completes exercises at Albury Airport from time to time, referred to as approach manoeuvre training.
It essentially means the plane, a Boeing E-7A Wedgetail, makes its way towards the runway before aborting the landing and continuing its flight - repeating it on several occasions.
IN OTHER NEWS:
The E-7A Wedgetail provides Australia with one of the most advanced air battle space management capabilities in the world.
It has the ability to communicate with other aircraft, provide air control from the sky and can cover four million square kilometres during a single 10-hour mission.
The E-7A Wedgetail is housed at the RAAF Base at Williamtown, north of Newcastle.
