Is it just a charter for those 2 days because it doesn't fly to Sydney anymore?
I might catch it on the Sunday ! :)

[Jayden Laing]

Yes Rory, its a charter just over those 2 days!

[Paul f.]

If anyone wants the Cathay Hong Kong Trader B-LJA (flying CX023), it will be in later this evening by the looks of it.

It's on the tarmac in Hong Kong and hasn't departed just yet - but should do so shortly. So it's late running. :rolleyes:

Posted for those who want to get a shot of it (might do so myself if the timing is right). I'll update the arrival time when it gets going.

Edit 2: Will arrive 06:27 tomorrow (2 May).My info has it as B-KAF.

[Tim Bowrey]

Parked at the GA this evening is a US Navy Grumman C-2 Greyhound arrived earlier this evening. I am not 100% on the reg as it was dark but according to the '42' marking on the front its 162178 (cn 58).

[Grahame Hutchison]

Tim, I saw this one on RadarBox earlier this evening .....

162178 (http://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviation-photos/middle/6/5/5/2046556.jpg) 2012/05/02 18:04:32 Grumman C-2C Greyhound G-123 (58) - US Navy - Mode S (AE0459)

Greyhound '42' is from the USS Carl Vinson.

[Tim Bowrey]

Thanks Grahame, its in a very dark spot of the GA but photographable(if thats a word) in the afternoon.

[Shayne G]

EY454 is operated by A6-EHD A340-500 today (Thursday), will arrive around 18:10 tonight.

[Shayne G]

The US Navy Grumman C-2 Greyhound is apparently doing some flights in and out of Sydney.

Departs Friday at 1:30pm and arrives back at 5:00pm on the same day.

On Saturday it departs at 10:15am, unsure at this time if it will come back after that flight.

as always, subject to change.

[Tim Bowrey]

This evening brings us Thai's HS-TGW as TG471/472. Not a first visit but it certainly is uncommon in recent times for the Star Alliance livery.

[Jaryd stock]

Here is the RAWHIDES C-2A

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7197/6991803858_d1bc7d123a_z.jpg

[Kieran Wells]

Fantastic Jaryd!

[Tim Bowrey]

The C-2 just departed 16L as 'Romeo Golf 01'

[Jaryd stock]

C-2 is down in Nowra and is scheduled to be back at 5:30

[Tim Bowrey]

Tomorrows KE121/122 operated by HL7743 the 'New Horizons' which has visited several times in the past but not recently.

[Andrew Coggan]

The C-2 departed 16L about half an hour ago.

[NathanJ]

Royal Brunei RBA4076 772 V8-BLD just overflew Sydney from Christchurch.

[Brett Williamson]

Did the C-2 come back this arvo? I would like to see it tomorrow.

[Nigel C]

Nope, not here now.

Chris, the only thing missing from your shot is the copious amounts of black smoke that bellowed from this thing, 8 blade props sure spun fast, so I'm not surprised you got easy prop blur.
It was interesting watching the start-up procedure for it yesterday. With about 6 ground crew front and back and sides, one guy gave all the funky aircraft carrier hand signals to the pilot (a lot of which I could keep up with, but many I had no idea what he was asking to check...:confused:), and after each procedure the aircraft was checked to make sure no leaks or faults were detected. Everything from the rear cargo door closing to the brake lines after 5m taxiing were checked prior to departure. It was a lengthy procedure but so slick to watch.

Cheers

[James S.]

Bet it couldn't beat the AN-12 Nigel. :D

[Nigel C]

I'm not sure if I've been rostered on for an An-12 departure :-/ Something to look forward to, you reckon?

[James S.]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQgsxj4YLLs

The same rego we got back in December. (UR-CAH) :D

(Skip to 4:30)

Also, does anyone remember the last time a C-2 visited Sydney? I seem to remember one departing off 34R back in the early 2000's.

[Nigel C]

Possibly when the USS Kitty Hawk came in 2007? I do remember seeing the last C-2 visit, but can't pinpoint exactly when. Too many night shifts clouding the memory I think!

[James S.]

I think it was more around the time when the USS Constellation came around ~2001. (Only a fuzzy memory now)

[Nigel C]

Ok it wins :)

[Paul f.]

Due in Monday afternoon is Falcon 2000 D-BFFB from NZ,this aircraft was in MEL last weekend.

[Shayne G]

Thai Airways Star Alliance 744 HS-TGW is back again operating TG471..

[Peter Agatsiotis]

The only C-2 Greyhounds logged (by me) were the 2 at SYD on 2nd July 2005.
162169/27 and 162164/26 from the USS Kittyhawk. I have them as C-2A and was wondering when the later 8 bladed props (C-2C?) were introduced.

there may have been more since but I don't recall any.

[callum bain]

just a note that a thai 747-400 is in at the moment wearing there special one world livery rego is HS-TGW

[Jaryd stock]

Sorry Callum but it's been mentioned and it's the Star Alliance not One World livery.

Pete If I remember correctly there was a C-2 around July 2007 can't remember which SQN but it had the rising sun art work on the tail, very much like the Sundowners scheme they had on there F-14's now F-5's.
Happy to be corrected.

[callum bain]

Thanks for that and sorry for the mistake also i noted a c-17 globe master do a low flyover at home bush if anyone can tell me about this because a week ago i saw the same thing over newtown thx

[Jaryd stock]

It's the weekly USAF flight into Richmond AFB is was quite low today I noticed it from Sutherland.

[callum bain]

thanks thought it was odd also am i right to say that the usaf used to fly there c-5 galaxy over here or has it always been c-17

[callum bain]

and why does the USAF fly there c-17s here anyway do they have troops here in sydney

[Jaryd stock]

They fly supplies around the place as to why sort dunno troops would be on charter flights from different American Airlines, and I could be wrong but before C-17's, C-141's used to do the run with an occasional C-5/ KC-10-135 doing it but very rarely. We might have to create another thread Callum to discuss further since this is movement thread only....

[callum bain]

Thanks maybe title richmond movements or something am new to forum and am unsure how but thanks

callum

[Stefan Perkas]

Evening all,

A330-200 N384HA is operating HA451/452 tonight. 1st visit.

[Bob C]

Hi Callum

US military aircraft are frequent visitors to RAAF bases and civil airports around Australia and come here for numerous reasons, apart from major exercises, as you would expect because Australia has been an ally of the US for many years.

For instance, last week a USAF C17 was at RAAF Pearce W A when the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson was visiting Fremantle so I assume it bought in spare parts and other supplies. Then a few days ago a C5 Galaxy collected a U S Coast Guard helicopter from Cairns for return to the US and in two weeks time a B52 will be making a fly by at the RAAF Pearce airshow. And USN and USCG Gulfstreams visited Brisbane last week, probably for the commemoration of the Battle of the Coral Sea.

U S military bizjets are almost weekly visitors bringing in high ranking officers and officials to discuss matters pertaining to various acquisitions we are making, our role with the US in sandy places, long range navigation exercises, future basing strategies in Australia, ceremonial events etc etc etc.

Given that US forces will be based in Darwin and that W A will receive more visits from US ships, we can expect to see the number of US military aircraft visits increasing.

[callum bain]

Thanks for that you have an amazing knowledge of military aircraft.

Regards Callum

[Nigel C]

Callum,

Firstly, welcome to the forum. There are lots of people on this forum with in-depth knowledge of pretty much all facets of the aviation industry, covering not only local issues but also aviation worldwide. Bob is one of many who grace these pages.

While you're finding your feet here, don't forget to check out the many features of the board like search functions etc. They'll help to avoid the double posting of information, finding out topics that may have been covered etc, as well as keeping the locals happy. :) And don't forget, there's nothing wrong with adding to a topic that was started a couple of years ago if it's still relevant today.

Once again, welcome, and I'm sure we all look forward to your contributions to the board.

Cheers

[callum bain]

Thanks for the encouragement and hope to see you on the spotting weekend

callum

[Bob C]

Hi Callum

Thanks for your comments ; being an aviation enthusiast is a terrific hobby and you will meet plenty of people from a wide variety of backgrounds many of whom have vast amounts of knowledge gained over many years and who all share the same passion.

In my case I started over 50 years ago and still have thousands of cuttings, logbooks, comics, magazines, photos, slides, books, models, memorabilia etc etc etc dating back to 1960.

Cheers

Bob

[callum bain]

Thanks again and will see you at spotting weekend will be grateful to meet you and put a face to a name. As i am quite young and have been plane spotting for only 3 years know and am very new to the game i hope to learn a lot from you and other members.

Regards Callum

[Peter Agatsiotis]

Callum, the C-17 was 99-0165, callsign Reach 7E1, for your records.

[Bob C]

Hi Callum

I live in Perth and won't be able to make the Spotters Weekend this year.

But I've been to a few in the past and always enjoyed myself.

Cheers

Bob

[Bob C]

Hi Peter

I'm not 100% certain but I think the 8 bladed C2s are still designated C2A. Two were aboard the Carl Vinson and I'll get some photos to you asap when I can figure out how to downsize the images.

I wanted to get some photos from head on but the weather turned really nasty so the flight deck tour was cancelled but I did manage a few shots of aircraft parked near the "island" abeit in dark and rainy weather.

Cheers

Bob

[James S.]

I'm pretty sure that the C-2C designation is correct.

[Jaryd stock]

The official designation is C-2A(R), R for reprocured 39 of which have been upgraded from the Origanal model, and are being upgraded with E-2C Hawkeye systems as well as E-2D blades.

[callum bain]

Thanks Peter and sorry to here that you cannot make it this year Bob.

[callum bain]

Does anyone know what day/times the Cathay pacific cargo 747-8 comes in thanks.

callum

[Tim Bowrey]

Callum around 9.50am Flightstats is showing and its B-LJF.

[George G]

Does anyone know what day/times the Cathay pacific cargo 747-8 comes in thanks.

callum

On Sunday it came in the afternoon around 4pm....changes around. Keep an eye out.


But i dont think that was the 747-8....

[Tim Bowrey]

Sunday's CX Cargo was B-LIE George.

[callum bain]

Does cargolux operate services to sydney with the 747-8.

[Shayne G]

No, Cargolux only used the 747-400F until the flights were discontinued on 25th December 2011. However they had plans to use the 747-8F down the line. Cargolux no longer operate any scheduled services to Sydney.

[callum bain]

Thanks

[callum bain]

Recently i have noticed that thai airways has been changing between there A340-600 and there 747-400 am i correct and if so why?

callum

[Nigel C]

Have a look in the search function and type "Thai". There are a ton of topics that come up, but one in particular deals with Thai bringing back the B747. You may find the answer you're looking for in there.

[Tim Bowrey]

Thai Airways will opperate the 744 up until Oct 27 using TGP(Retro), TGW(Star Alliance) TGO, TGR, TGT and TGX. So for rego chasers, these are the only aircraft which will be used on our two SYD-BKK flights.

[callum bain]

Thanks for that.

[callum bain]

[Paul f.]

9V-SKC at YSSY 6th built and second delivered to Singapore Airlines.Why is this noteworthy.

[Paul f.]

This is noteworthy due in around 9am is GLF5 N740SS.

[Jaryd stock]

This is noteworthy due in around 9am is GLF5 N740SS.

Noteworthy but wrong thread, Callum is only a kid he will learn...

[Tim Bowrey]

Callum please read the guidelines in regards to what is noteworthy any what isn't.
Guidelines (http://yssyforum.net/board/showthread.php?t=7213)

SKC has visited possible over 1000 times and is their 3rd A380. Everyone has to learn somewhere but please realize those forum is for everyone and what is noteworthy for you may not be for the regulars here.

[Jayden Laing]

Jaryd,
N623RH, N624RH & N629RH are the ex RAAF Omega tankers.

[Jaryd stock]

Tanks Jay.

[Blake Riley]

Anyone interested in getting Aerolineas Argentinas tomorrow its operated by the A343
LV-CSE in the new livery

[Rory Delaney]

Could anyone please tell me sooner to the date, if anything will be noteworthy for Saturday morning? I am most likely going to spot at around 6am :)

[Nigel C]

Yep, there will be a big bus full of plane geeks airside. It's not been done like this on a spotting weekend before, so therefore in my opinion it will be a noteworthy movement. ;)

[phil.l]

[Stefan Perkas]

Morning all,

Flightaware showing 'Dubai 8' due at 0930 from Dubai , I gather that this will be A6-GGP.

[Tim Bowrey]

DUB008 at FL410 NW of Condobolin and Stefan you are spot on, A6-GGP as always.

[Stefan Perkas]

Afternoon all,

HA451/452 tonight is being operated by N386HA. This will be its 1st visit. This is the newest aircraft to join the fleet, only delivered a week and half ago.

[Rory Delaney]

I saw this on my way home from school today! I was gonna post about it but I realised you already did :)

[Shayne G]

Dubai Air Wing B744F A6-GGP departs back to Dubai 7am Saturday.

[Peter Agatsiotis]

China Eastern MD-11F B-2174 arrived just after 5pm.

[Stefan Perkas]

Peter,

B-2174 became N954AR with Sky Lease Cargo in March 2011.

I think B-2174 is now a Gulfstream 450 which looks to have arrived from the Gold Coast as NSJ882 'Nanshan Jet Services' according to flightaware at 1705.

[Peter Agatsiotis]

thanks Stefan, active Display still shows it as an MD-11F!!

[Jayden Laing]

Pete, there was no China Eastern MD-11F last night when I left work at 8pm.

Stefan, the Gulfstream G-450 your talking about is actually registered B-8155. It landed 16L early evening last night from OOL (as you said!)

[Peter Agatsiotis]

Cheers Jayden, I was getting all excited as I needed B-2174 having seen a few MD-11F's from China on my last O'seas trip.

[Jaryd stock]

They have been in before and not real noteworthy by themselves but both United jets are, N180UA and N127UA both in the new merger scheme for the spotters that might be jetting in for today's events...

[Jaryd stock]

Also looks like G-VEIL is doing the VIrgin Atlantic flight.

[Rory Delaney]

Could you reply on this thread when the Virgin Atlantic new colours are on there way to Sydney and the UA new colours? Thanks :)

[Rory Delaney]

No worries, if you want that - I'll post them.

That would be really great :) Post it with some notice, and preferably on a saturday and sunday until the school holidays :)

[Rory Delaney]

Lloyd,
Royal Brunei into SYD 25MAY12. BI4193 arrive from CBR 1700, BI4194 depart to BWN at 1800.

Back again on 27MAY12 as BI4195 arrive BWN at 1600 & BI4196 depart to SIN at 1715.
Ops by B772

27th May at 4pm it should land at Sydney Airport? :)

[Jayden Laing]

That's what's written above!

(accidentally left out the *from* part between arrive & BWN)

[Rory Delaney]

Thats why I replied again to be sure! :) I'm definitely going to see it! Hope it lands on 34L :\

[Stefan Perkas]

Afternoon all,

Don't forget this Tuesday 15/5/12 Thai Cargo is scheduled to resume services to Sydney. This time using their B747-400BCF HS-TGJ.

TG865 eta 1805
TG866 etd 2105

[Rory Delaney]

Do they have any weekend daytime or morning service to Sydney?

[Shayne G]

No they don't. Original plans had TG866 departing Wednesday mornings but it changed.

[Jayden Laing]

For anyone who is yet to get a photo of ZK-ECO (even though its been sitting at the GA for a few weeks) it's departing to Longreach at 9:25am today as "Vincent 810"

http://flightaware.com/live/flight/VIN810

Also: SQ231 is being operated by 9V-SKR, first visit to SYD according to me!

[Tim Bowrey]

VH-XFC has just arrived in SYD on its first flight and due to return to MEL later this morning.

Jayden, SKR has visited SYD a few times before.

[Peter Agatsiotis]

hi Jayden, 9V-SKR was in on 26th April;

Also Active Display has A330 VH-XFC operating DJ813 MEL-SYD this morning.

Tim just posted b4 me.

[Jayden Laing]

Ok thanks for that! Best update my logs......

[Peter Agatsiotis]

VH-XFD is inbound to SYD as DJ813, first visit?

[Tim Bowrey]

Entered service on the 15th Pete MEL-PER I think.

[Andrew Coggan]

VH-XFD is inbound to SYD as DJ813, first visit?

XFD's first visit was yesterday Peter, DJ552 PER-SYD and DJ559 SYD-PER. :)

[Shayne G]

On Saturday morning we have 2 Atlas Air charters apparently:

5Y5413 due from HNL at 6:05am
5Y5414 due out to HKG at 8:05am

5Y5415 due from HNL at 11:30am
5Y5416 due out to HKG at 13:30pm

Unsure of rego's at this time but should be different aircraft then usual and as always subject to change.

[Daniel Ayto]

N412MC is operating the 5Y5413 flight so nothing special seeing as it has visited Sydney numerous times before. Unsure of what is operating 5Y5415 though. Hoping for a different aircraft :)

[Zac M]

Flightaware is suggesting it is a 'Dreamlifter'

[Shayne G]

That info on flightaware is recycled from a previous '5Y5415' from November 2011. The flight is just a regular standard 747-400 Freighter ;)

[Shayne G]

I've got it as N476MC but that's not confirmed.

[Rory Delaney]

Anything interesting for the early morning tomorrow around 6am-8am that is kind of special? (Except the atlas air flights, and including UA/CO livery)
Please reply :)

[Shayne G]

Can confirm my previous post..
Giant 5415 is being operated by N476MC. This aircraft has Atlas Air titles minus the tail logo.

[Jaryd stock]

Still a different livery so to speak so that's good...

Rory, Patience is a virtue, if there's anything people will post something how about you look up flight aware or dataflight and you can let us know for a change...

[Rory Delaney]

I said except Atlas Air..

[Rory Delaney]

Still a different livery so to speak so that's good. Rory, Patience is a virtue, if there's anything people will post or look up flight aware or dataflight and you can let us know for a change...

I would look them up myself, but i find it confusing.. :/

[Tim Bowrey]

5Y5415 due from HNL at 11:30am
5Y5416 due out to HKG at 13:30pm


Delayed arrival till 1515.

[Rory Delaney]

5Y5414 Atlas Air flight departed 2 and a half hours late. I got it on film taking off.

[Jaryd stock]

A6-EHB Etihad A340-500 is in today, make your own mind up if this noteworthy...

[Tim Bowrey]

Flightaware (http://flightaware.com/live/flight/9MMUD) has MASkargo's 4th A332F 9M-MUD arriving this morning arriving from Kuching due around 10:20am althought MH Freighters have been a little off schedual lately.

[Ian Gains]

N476MC is new to Atlas Air, as she was previously G-GSSA with Global Supply Systems, & N495MC with British Airways Cargo before that.

[Mark T]

Hi Chris

Presume that should be B-LJB. Now due shortly after midday.

Cheers
M

[Shayne G]

THA865/866 looks to be operated by HS-TGH. First visit since conversion to freighter and now means both Thai Cargo 747s will have visited.

[Stefan Perkas]

Evening all,

Flightaware showing that 'Toll Freight 21' from Brisbane tonight is showing as a B737-400 whcih would make it operated by ZK-TLF. This should be its 1st visit to Sydney. The aircraft is all white

It is due at 2020 and departs at 2230 back to Brisbane.

[Tim Bowrey]

One for the rego chasers as tomorrows BA15/16 is opperated by G-BYGG which hasn't visited in 7 years. Last visit was 20th December 2005.

[Tim Bowrey]

Due in at 9.45am is Air Asia's special A330 9M-XXF on the D7222/223 flight.

[Jayden Laing]

V8-BLC due in about 5pm from Canberra as "RBA4193" (http://flightaware.com/live/flight/RBA4193)

[Rowan McKeever]

http://flightaware.com/live/flight/V8BLC has it still over the NW coast with over 4hrs to go until it reaches CBR at 1925. But then as you say Jayden it's supposed to leave CBR at 1645 and arrive in SYD just after 1700. I know T7s are great and all but can they really be in two places that far apart at once!?!?

[Shayne G]

We also have Thai charters due to an unrelated event.

26/05/12 TG8803 from BKK at 8:10pm
27/05/12 TG8804 to CBR at 3:55pm
28/05/12 TG8805 from CBR at 5:20pm

[Stefan Perkas]

Morning all,

Planefinder showing that newest Hawaiian A330-200 N388HA is operating HA451/452 tonight. This will be its 1st visit to Sydney.

[Rory Delaney]

Just to confirm, is the RBI 777 going to land aswell in Sydney at 1600 on Sunday ?

[Rory Delaney]

Looks like we get 9M-XXF again today as Xanadu 222/223.

I still haven't photographed it yet. :(

Wish they came on the weekends :( And to confirm, is RBI 777 also going to land at Sydney Airport on Sunday at 1600 ?

[Jayden Laing]

At this stage, YES Rory. I would have notified you & posted it here in the forum otherwise.....

[Tim Bowrey]

26/05/12 TG8803 from BKK at 8:10pm
27/05/12 TG8804 to CBR at 3:55pm

[Shayne G]

Sure did Peter, JetGo Australia E135 VH-JTG arrived earlier this afternoon from Broken Hill.

Was gonna post when I saw it yesterday on FlightAware but wasn't sure if it counts as noteworthy.

[Tim Bowrey]

Tonight's SQ211 operated by a 77W this evening, 9V-SWG.

[Peter Agatsiotis]

Thanks Shayne, Ishould of stayed a bit longer!

[Dave Dale]

Saw that on the radar earlier today, was wondering why it was turning into Darwin.

[Rory Delaney]

MASkargo MH6207 [9M-MPS] will arrive at Sydney Airport in the morning :)

[Andrew Coggan]

MASkargo MH6207 [9M-MPS] will arrive at Sydney Airport in the morning :)

Not really noteworthy as it has been to Sydney probably several hundred times.

[Kieran Wells]

been to Sydney probably several hundred times.

Think i got it 2 weeks ago here :D

[Tim Bowrey]

Here here well said!

A Qantas 737-800 passed through Rockhampton this morning.

Far out! One person telling me is okay, not just a bunch of you.

Rory I think you need to be a little more diligent on what you post yourself. You should read the guidelines on whats Noteworthy and what isn't.

-USAF C-130 the other morning IS Noteworthy

-Maskargo 744 is Not.

People aren't 'sending hatred' to you at all. Most are just getting sick of things being posts that are regular schedualled services or no longer worth posting EG Air Asia 9M-XXF which has visited 4 days in a row its pointless posting this every day. Understand this is not a conversation thread, just a one post per movement or update. When people see a new post here, they expect something cool to be coming, not two laddies going at each other.

Enough talk, lets get back to business gents!:)
