The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge fly to Brisbane on day four of their Australian tour and are met with the best Queensland has to offer with warm weather and blue skies.
Flying into the RAAF Base Amberley, Prince William and Catherine spend the morning with families of service personnel killed in recent conflicts and inspect a Super Hornet fighter jet display and flight simulator.
They will later attend a reception co-hosted by Queensland Premier Campbell Newman and Queensland’s Governor at the Brisbane Convention Centre.
The Royal couple have left Prince George at home for Easter Saturday but will be back with him in Sydney’s Admiralty House tonight.
