Evening all,

Here is something to look for in the next couple of weeks, before they change to B744's for the summer months.

HL7752 looks to have only visited Sydney once according to http://www.16right.com. that was on 03/10/10.

Running late but did spot him from home as it tracked towards Richmond.

Could make out some sort of logo on the lower rear fuselage (it was at FL180).

That's 2 777's today (got A6-EWB at 06:15 - my last EK 777LR).
Always do well if they are using 16R.

Greg, the ROK is bidding for the 2018 games. If the win they will be hosting the games in the city of PyeongChang. They are up against Annecy in France and Munich, Germany. The IOC will hand down its decision in Durban, Sth Africa in July 2011. Hence now is a good time to be advertising the 2018 games.

Cheers

Today's Korean is HL7751, first visit acc to my log.
I logged this a/c at Seattle in May 08 as we were taxiing for departure. A nice finish to a busy 2 day logging spree (incl Boeing Field).

Kieran, I noted your proposed flights next year and I too flew BA49 (B744 delayed 4 hrs) LHR-SEA and of course QF12 LAX-SYD on VH-OEG. SEA-LAX was my first CRJ flight on United Express, very roomy. Enjoy!

Nice shots Sarah and lucky it rotated just in front of the mound. They normally rotate further down.
