Last week Emirates took delivery of A6-EDE and Air Austral now have F-OSYD a 777-300ER.

I'd imagine we will see these here soon.

Was the 'OSYD' rego on the Air Austral deliberate? ;)

Would love to see them for real since starting service here, but I've still got to cast my eyes on the Etihad F1 livery in the flesh as well!

From what I know the OSYD was deliberate to celebrate the commencement of services to Sydney.

Could that mean that their next one(if its coming) could be F-ONOU? OPAR for Paris Im guessing?

See that pattern;
CDG-RUN-SYD-NOU

This week EK412 will operate its last 4 flights begining tomorrow, of Emirates B772LR. From Mon May 4th EK412 will be A380 daily

Make that 3 to look out for, maybe we might get to see BA B772ER G-YMMR operate BA15 starting from next month.

Very Correct! ONOU is also for Noumea as Tim mentions. These two 773's were given these regos as celebration of this routes, and as the only airline to do one stop same plane Paris-Sydney.

Thanks Gerard; only picked up one 777LR here plus one in DXB; should have made the effort on Sundays and P/Hols.
