Grahame, It looks like you were at YSSY on 23rd. I departed that day on Cathay, and thought I saw a predominantly white A340 parked up. Was I correct, and if so could you identify it for me please? Cheers Phil

Phil, I would say that would be the Hyfly Defence Force charter.

Phil I would say that was the Australian Defence Force charter operated by HiFly

If it was at a gate @ international it would have been hifly CS-TQZ otherwise if was on a stand off bay near the tower it would have been sky prime HZ-SKY1.

Sky Prime A340-200 HZ-SKY1 has been parked on the new Kilo Apron since it arrived on 21/01/2017 (Apron near the Control Tower). It was built in 1993 and was the 9th A340 off the production line (C/n 9).

The all white ADF Charter A340s go to the International Terminal.

Here are a few images that may help.

I have been picking up VH-DNG on ADS-B since 5/1/2014, and never seen the aircraft - looks nice.

Also noticed VH-JCR yesterday on ADS-B doing a hop over to Wagga Wagga, and back to Nowra as AJAX23.

Re the A340, the photo of the Saudi machine and the positioning are both correct Many thanks all.
