FLIGHT DELAYS AT NEWCASTLE
At least one flight to Newcastle Airport was delayed by more than eight hours today, because of a RAAF exercise.
Fighter jets and aircraft today shared the runway, and will do so again tomorrow.
A Virgin Blue flight from Melbourne was diverted to Brisbane this morning and another was cancelled, leaving passengers stranded in Queensland.
