The Governor-General's Flight was a Royal Australian Air Force transport unit. The Governor-General's Flight was formed at RAAF Station Canberra in April 1945. Although the Flight initially only provided transport for the Governor-General of Australia, its role was later expanded to include carrying the Prime Minister and other dignitaries. The Governor-General's Flight was disbanded in July 1947 but was re-raised in July 1948. The Flight was disbanded for a second and final time in October 1950 with the VIP transport role being transferred to No. 36 Squadron.
