Qatar Airways to fly Airbus A380 to Sydney from June
 

I just read an article about headed subject.

And only 1 day after their inaugural flight into Sydney.

Update.

on the arrival of the aircraft will there be a water fountain from the fire trucks?

If it was a new route, then perhaps, but I think unlikely for just a change in aircraft.

I checked the booking engine at Qatar, and yes, it does arrive on Friday at 1735L

Arrival time is slated for 1915L for the A380 on Friday Grahame. 1735L is the final B777-300ER time for Thursday evening.

Good pickup Nigel

at the mound, is it light enough to take photos at 7:00 pm?

Last light is at 1812 Reece, but the moon is a 99% full waxing gibbous that rises at 1711.
If your camera has excellent low light capability, the near full moon might give off a bit of light, but you'd probably be best viewing it from the top of Rydges Hotel (if they're open for spotting then?).

Ok, thanks :)
