Mike Cannon-Brookes's Bombardier Global 7500 lands in Sydney after a short hop from Canberra

Mike Cannon-Brookes's Bombardier Global 7500 (N1711M) was tracked departing Canberra Airport at 23:07 UTC on 26 June 2026 and touching down at a private airfield near Sydney's eastern suburbs 50 minutes later. The aircraft climbed to 21,000 feet and reached a maximum ground speed of 383 knots before descending into the evening sky above New South Wales.

If Mike Cannon-Brookes was aboard, he would return to Sydney the same week his company Atlassian continues to absorb a 70% share-price slide over the past year — a drop that erased roughly US$1 billion from his personal wealth in a single session this March, per reports from the Australian Financial Review and Cyber Daily. The co-founder also recently completed a purchase of a one-third stake in Blackcourt League Investments, the entity that controls the South Sydney Rabbitohs, announced by the club itself. Adding to the backdrop, a divorce settlement with his wife Annie could alter the dual-class share structure that has kept founder control intact at Atlassian for 24 years, per the AFR.

This was the first tracked movement recorded for the tail N1711M in celebplanes' recent data. The Bombardier Global 7500 — acquired late last year, a purchase Mike Cannon-Brookes acknowledged caused him 'deep internal conflict' given its carbon footprint — is typically used to shuttle him between his Sydney base, his minority stake in the Utah Jazz, and his global business interests including a sponsorship deal with Formula 1.
