As far as I know they are. It will be to raise money for the salvos. If I get up early enough I might meet the QF787 gang and I will take you over and show you where to get some good shots of the planes been towed into position.

Zac, you're a champ! Will see you down there when the time comes :)

Hey Guys,

I too will be attending the open day and coming in on QF787 just wondering how any of the other guys will get to the open day area from the terminal? and is it far from the terminal?

The Open Day is a 10min walk from the terminal. Exit the terminal, walk through the ground floor of the multi-deck carpark (you have no choice with all the construction work on the new terminal) and follow the signs for the Brindabella Business Park. Then just continue south - follow the crowds/cars.

Thanks Steve, I now know where im going, Much appreciated.

Cheers

If you do it fast enough you can do the walk in about 5 minutes. Lens wise I don't have no idea. I got my first SLR last week and before that I was successfully spotting from that with a compact digital.

Righto fellas, all booked and ready to go!

QF787 down to Canberra, and back on DJ657 to Sydney. Hopefully can get down there intime to get a seat on the Q400 joyflight.

For anyone on QF787 who wants to tee up for the ride down prior to check-in, I'll probably have something subtle on my bag, like a rubber chicken or something. That can be the secret message board member identifier :D


See you all on Sunday!

I will probably be driving Zac to the airport, seeing as though I am meeting Maikha and other friends off 787. So will see everyone upon arrival. Am glad I don't have to work till late afternoon!

So you are driving me now...lol
