It's registered to the Royal Australian Air Force. It appears to be used for staff and resource transfers between airbases.

It was most likely flying with the Black-Hawk Helicopters.

That most likely to be the answer as it has been up at FLT level 230 most of the day.

Speaking of aircraft with DNGO callsigns, a couple of weeks ago I spotted DNGO03 (A32-437) in town flying some peculiar routes.

Friday (6 March):

Saturday (7 March):

It appears to be the same model of aircraft, a King Air 350, and is used by the RAAF.

DNGO20 is up right now, and has been for nearly the last 3 hours, flying laps over Bindoon.

Though this time DNGO20 is circling different suburbs than the other night, as well as tracking over the ocean.

Meanwhile, VH-WPE has been up for the last couple of hours circling the CBD, just north and south of the Swan River.

Thanks for the update Glen.

DNGO20 left RAAF Base Pearce this morning headed for Alice Springs, then on to RAAF Base Townsville, so we may have seen the last of Black Hawk training this time around.

Though, there are still a few days left in the publicised training period (20/02 to 25/03).
