Rossiya Airlines A319 RA-73025 due in tomorrow morning at 0857 from Jakarta as "RSD9".

Wonder who from the Russian government is making the trip and why, must be reasonably high up to get a ACJ319 from the special detachment fleet?

Love the Google Translate App on the iPhone using the camera - perfect for foreign language meuns - it just replaces the text in the image

"Olga" Erickson Air-Crane (N6962R) Sikorsky S-64E called in for fuel at Wagga Wagga Airport (headed towards Sydney). Picked this up on Mode-S (A943AE) for the first time.

Also picked up McDermott Aviation (N281JL) Bell 214B-1 on Mode-S (A2D285) but couldn't spot it (likely hidden by the general aviation hangars next to the AVGAS and JET A1 fuel depot).

[Grahame Hutchison]

I noticed F70 Unity 3393 tracking oceanic in towards Sydney, and thought that was a little unusual. This is definitely the long way around from Auckland to Melbourne - maybe something to do with an old twin over water, and they needed to track via Lord Howe.

No doubt for EDTO compliance - would need to remain within 60 mins (at OEI cruise) of NLK and/or LDH. Old twin over water (in a way, although old not quite the issue), as you said.

[Rowan McKeever]

If my powers of deduction are playing, AA's 77W visit on Friday morning should be N734AR.

Been good to see some different stuff here on the south coast Grahame. Things should ramp up next week for fleet concentration period.

Cheers.

With the strong winds this afternoon, and the late change, it was good to see some heavy metal up the DOM6 end of the field - ZK-OKC

The "December Movements Photo" thread is not up yet, so here is Jetstar's A320 VH-VQG sporting the new "Snoopy" livery rolling through on Runway 34R
late this afternoon, after completing the flight from Townsville as JQ913. The aircraft had touched down as I was still attaching the long lens - bad afternoon
traffic on Foreshore Road.
