Thanks Kirean, Matthew, Pete and Sarah, I was trying to look for Air Austral in my photos couldn't find em. I'm annoyed I didn't get that Chilean 763. When you look back on this year you forget what actually came in..

[Andrew Coggan]

I think this was the biggest movement of the year :D

[Shayne G]

Great photos and summary Jaryd!

My favourite movements are all the classic movements so,

Saudia 747SP, x9 Kalitta Air 747-200F's, Pionair Convair 580, and a underrated movement in my opinion was Gulfstream 3 N410UJ (http://yssyforum.net/board/showpost.php?p=72293&postcount=2). With over the top noise restrictions visitors such as GLF3's (even with hushkits are becoming very rare for Sydney).

Others worth noting is the World Airways Cargo MD-11F.

Lets hope for a even better year in 2013!

[Paul f.]

MEL and PER had the movement of the year with this rare IL76MF.

[Jaryd stock]

Thanks Shayne, ill have to have a look at the vault to see if I can find a photo of that MD-11, that IL-76 was a good one to Paul

[Paul f.]

MEL got N279WA back in March

[Grahame Hutchison]

For me it was the visit by Dreamliner ZA003 ...
