Unuasual arrival into Brisbane tonight

[matthew mcdonald]

Hia all, Not to sure what this is but on the Brisbane flight information page it has 5K 622 arriving at 9:15pm tonight from Kuala Lumpur. Could anyone in the know maybe post what this is.

Thanks in advance.

[Tim Bowrey]

HiFly has the code of 5K so it could be a leased A340.

[matthew mcdonald]

Yeah thats what I was thinking but more to the point why is it coming and hopefully maybe it might come to SYD. (Hopefully)

[Max C]

Probably the new troop carrier seing as Strategic finished this week I think.

[Radi K]

Yes coming in to start the Adagold contract

[matthew mcdonald]

Thanks for confirming that Radi. Is this aircratf the fully white A343 ? (CS-TQM)

[lloyd fox]

It is CS-TQM but yet to be eye balled up here but most likely white.

Strategic last ADF flight arrived today into Australia.

[Radi K]

Yes def all white paint, spotted he yesterday.

Morning all,

Sorry for dragging this topic back up...

CS-TQM has been replaced by ex SAS A343 OY-KBM. From another forum OY-KBM has just arrived into BNE this morning. So expect it into Sydney sometime this week.

Not sure how long OY-KBM is in country for. It is all White

[Tim Bowrey]

Thanks for the info Stefan.

Due into SYD tomorrow night 7:30pm and out 9pm SYD-DRW-NHD.

Back on the 6th at 2pm ex Al Minhad Airbase and Darwin then out to BNE at 3pm.

Cheers
