Southern Air operate on behalf of MasKargo though it seems rare these days. Today it departed as MH6204 at 1:15pm.

Damn I just missed it,
left the airport at around 1pm :(:(:(

I think you might find that MasKargo are getting rid of them as a result of Southern Air being often late/delaying flights due to mechanical & other problems.

I've noticed they are often delayed for a long time or don't show up all together, thanks for the info there Jayden, any idea when they will stop coming completely? I wouldn't mind seeing a classic 747 take off one last time before Sydney loses the last visiting classics :(

No idea Shayne but i should imagine it wont be too far in the distant future as you said because MasKargo seem to operate their own aircraft a lot lately

Even there own 747F's (MasKargo) are also late, some 24 hours late!
Qantas's Atlas Air Cargo's 744F's never ever run on time either:eek:

If a classic 747 is coming into YSSY or is already there it would be greatly appreciated if someone could tell me.
thanks :)

Looks like MAS is operating a Southern Air 742 today due in at 10 for those who want to see a classic.
