Default This morning's surprise

I was intrigued around 9.30 this morning to see The Seagull* on final approach to RWY 34L - about 3 hours after it had left Sydney as QF6006 bound for Melbourne.

After rolling out on 34L I lost sight of it until aboard VBC on taxi to the threshold of 34R when I saw it taxi into position for a 34L takeoff just after 10 am. I was lucky enough to grab a grainy photo of it disappearing into the north west as VBC banked right after its 34R takeoff.

Photos below show The Seagull just after touchdown rolling out on 34L, and then off to Brisbane only 35 minutes later.

*my nickname for the A380 - inspired by its head-on profile on approach
