Just a curious question: As OQA will obviously be doing the flyby empty at 12:15, after it is completed does anybody know if OQA will then operate the QF11 flight to LA that afternoon or will the flight be operated by OQC or B.

Just asomething that popped into my head.

one would be out of melbourne to lax today so that leaves two more to operate the other flights after the service.

Sydney FLYBY...
 
From the 'Special Events Policy and Planning Unit| Office of Protocol and Special Events, NSW Department of Premier and Cabinet'

Quote:

Dear all

Further to discussions at this morning's CSOG meeting regarding the State Funeral for Nancy 'Bird' Walton AO OBE, Tony Pipe (OPSE) has advised that the Tiger Moths have been requested to do their flyover at 1645hrs on Wednesday 21 January.

This decision was reached after discussions with Anna Holman. The reason for this is that the family will be at their private reception at Royal Sydney Golf Club at Rose Bay by that stage and will in fact be able to see the fly over.

CASA have rung and are going to approve the activity.

This came as an email to my office this morning for those interested...

Greetings. Is there anywhere on the Internet where I can watch the flypast live? Thank you.
