I believe it’s 1200 departure and 1315 return.
I heard a rumour there may be one or two passes over the lake at 5000 ft. But not confirmed b

OMG that's confusing!!

The last two joyflights were 60 minutes and 50 minutes.

Flight tracking app isn’t yet much help on a more exact arrival time

OMG that's confusing!!

My mistake - was looking at Arrivals after refreshing screen; Departures actually shows scheduled ETD 12:00 but estimated ETD 11:30, i.e. early!!
