The RAAF is set to disband 38 Squadron in Townsville under its fleet consolidation plan. The squadron's eight King Air 350s are in the process of moving to East Sale, where they will join four new planes. Whilst the move will leave Townsville without an active RAAF flying squadron, Army retains a large presence including Chinook and Taipan helicopters.
