Clive Palmer's aircraft lands in Brisbane as his firm faces sentencing for takeover breach

Clive Palmer's Bombardier Global 6000 (VH-VQN) was tracked flying from Canberra to Brisbane on June 25, 2026, a 1-hour 25-minute hop that touched down just after midday local time.

If Clive Palmer was aboard, he would arrive the same week his company Palmer Leisure Coolum Pty Ltd pleaded guilty in Brisbane Magistrates Court to breaching takeover laws over a 2012 timeshare buyout promise, per realcommercial.com.au. The matter has been sent to the District Court of Queensland for sentencing on a date yet to be fixed, with a maximum fine of $55,000.

The flight follows a pattern of movement between Canberra and Queensland, and comes as Palmer's political maneuvers continue — he recently trademarked 'United Nation' days before a meeting with Pauline Hanson, as reported by 13thbombsquadron.org.
