Smoke in a defense force plane was the cause of an emergency services call-out to Whitsunday Coast Airport last night.

Whitsunday Regional Council airports and commercial infrastructure manager Brian Joiner said emergency services were called to a smoke incident in the cockpit of the Royal Australian Air Force plane.

The C27 Spartan plane remained at the airport last night and was still there this afternoon.
