is that a/c rego a regular into Sydney?

Brian it's been in before but I've found that JA707/ 04/ 09/ 05J are pretty regular, but others would know more about the more frequent Rego's coming in.

thanks mate!

Hi everyone, I believe QF12 diverted to Brisbane this morning as it shows it on it's way from Brisbane. I have checked flightaware and it's true. Due in at 9:57AM.
By the way, I was at the airport earlier this morning and there were 2 Vietnam A330s. One that just landed and was at the gate, while the other was parked where Virgin Australia and Singapore Airlines usually park. Anyone know why?
Thanks!

Air Tahiti Nui aircraft operate Air Calin's Noumea - Tokyo service 4x weekly until 03DEC12, so it could well be that one of Calin's A330s is undergoing maintenance and Sydney will see Tahiti multiple times throughout this period as well.

You guys should see the Air Cals A330's in a new livery very very soon!

DO you know where I can see what this new livery looks like Brian?

From what Ive read Jayden it sounds like a redo of there hibiscus logo!

I was only mentioning this story to a friend over the weekend about how I would love to capture an Air Tahiti Nui.

Sounds like it's a great chance now.

I'm aware of the above post and on the other Noteworthy thread, that it will continue the Wednesday Air Calin service until December 5th. Is this quite a firm information?

I'd like to know because Wednesday is a work day for most people and yeah, I need to take the day off just to capture this rare gem.

Thanks,
HB

Yes, flights have been loaded into the booked system as A340-300 operated by Air Tahiti Nui, times 1.30-3.15pm on Wednesdays (Summer time).

However, subject to change of course

Thanks Carl.

Will have to chuck a sickie one Wednesday then. :)

Today we had four Star Alliance aircraft in today, SQ 773, AC A333, UA 744, TG 744. And JAL was 708 Oneworld scheme, and China Airlines is Skyteam A333. Don't know how often it's happend but all three Air Alliances in today.

Thai HS-TGW is also wearing 15 year anniversary logo

That'd have to be noteworthy on its own, wouldn't it???

Its meant to be CA for Air China, which is in a bit

I think i heard a call sign "Reach6E1" could this be a USAF C-17?

It is brad coming into Sydney, it made an emergency landing.

Any idea what one? Reg?

90-0533 Phil, one of the first cn 8

Great photos Jaryd!

Thanks Peter.

Any ETD of the C-17?

Not anytime soon James! It's still on the freight ramp all locked up! It was the same aircraft that made the emergency landing in WLG the other day!

I didn't have the motivation to go to the airport early in order to catch the Thomson (yes, boring for me as a European ;))...fortunately it was a little sunnier at the other end of the runway.

N164RJ has been running between Sydney and Brisbane, and departed for Coolangatta this morning at 0955... any idea on its return to Sydney, if at all?

Only delivered on 12/09/2012

HL8259 OZ0601 12/10/2012 08:44 Asiana Airlines A-330-323X Incheon(Seoul)-Sydney

Flightaware is showing QF12 is being diverted to Honolulu. http://flightaware.com/live/flight/QFA12
Could anyone fill us in on the reason?

Great pics Kurt! That's one good looking A330 :)

Nice pics, the A330-300 suits the Asiana livery really well - I will be on OZ0602 next month, so hopefully I will get a newbie like HL8259.

A6-EDZ, the latest A380 to Emirates fleet arrived this morning.. due back this evening before heading back to DXB

Would today's CA175/176 Air China service B-6070 be the first time it has visited Sydney since it's a domestic configured A332 rather than the normal international configured A332 planes that are the norm for the CA175/176 service?

Only a few days ago it did CA177/178 to Melbourne.

VH-OQK is now wearing 'Spirit of Australians' titles as well as the names; although they are hardly visible!
