Uzbekistan VP-BUF Overflying??
 
I picked up UZB3511 a 767-33P/ER at FL370 at around 6ish tonight heading round 118degrees so possibly NZ. Does anyone know if this was an overfly or to and from where?

Cheers
Gerard

Looks like it went to Chrustchurch as there is a departure on their board for Sunday.

UZ3512 Kuala Lumpur Sun 1:30 p.m.

Thanks Grahame, just did a google search and looks like its an annual charter flight for fishermen somewhere over that way.

I think I mightve seen that too, saw the contrails..

I have the same a/c, same flt no. on 6th May this year. Just over a month after their 757 (VP-BUH) was here with their soccer team.

Thanks for that Peter.

Its now overflying again from CHC at FL340.

Back again today, same flight no., at FL350 approaching Bathurst. Must be a lot of 'fishermen' in NZ.

VP-BUF UZB3511 is now overhead YSSY at FL370 heading 113deg at 502kts with a strong contrail visible through the breaks in the cloud cover. Turned overhead to 121deg and now tracking for CAWLY.

This flight has the ones that John West rejected.
