From the Bunbury Herald/Tuesday November 19

Three Caribou flew into Bunbury, two were flown from the ADF base in Brisbane as part of a two week publicity and recruitment tour through regional WA.

Display pilot Bradley Close used one of the planes to perform an air demo at the Red Bull air race on Sunday.

The third plane , which arrive dfrom Townsville was used for Army tasking purposes and landed in Bunbury to drop off ADF crew who were participating in nine days of training ( at the St John of God Hospital )
