Blake,

Have no idea of how long in Sydney for. According to FlightAware it went LAX-Tokyo-PPT-LAX-PPT-SYD.

Does anyone have a rego? Couldn't see one on 16right.

What would be even better is if someone had a photo from tonight/tomorrow?!!!:p

How could you doubt me Gerard? :D

This one will go streight to the "At least I saw it" collum. ISO 800 and 1/10th doesnt really work for me.

Number 1 is where it is now and Number 2 is when it was taxiing about to shut then engines down and get pushed back into parking. Soooo loud :D Pics from the mound were useless

LOL. Tim, doubt never once slipped into my mind that you wouldn't get a shot of it! And none of this pretty awful stuff, its an MD-11, you can't make it look bad if you tried!!! But ill be waiting for the photos to be posted here!!!;)

Oh just realised the photos are already here! Not all that bad though! I think they could get some more people in yellow jackets onto the stair cases though.
