Default VH-PPQ Dornier 328 enroute to YSSY
UPDATE- Scrap that looks like it might be an overfly. Left Melbourne but is passing Sydney at FL190.

Yeah just noticed that, they came from FL250 to FL190 so I assumed they were headed for YSSY but they are continuing North.

And now East. Would they be part of some sort of search up here?

They are only doing 190 knots, as opposed to over 300 on the way up. They are heading towards Port Kembla at the moment.
