ULD Serial Number

[Carsten Bauer]

Did anyone get the serial number of the ULD in position 4L on QF568 PER-SYD This afternoon? I missed it... sorry.

Carsten, are you for real?
I thought you guys spotted the planes, not the ground equipment!

Inside joke we were in stitches this arvo at the esky bar. Joking about ppl having really strange hobbies such as trainspotting, then it went down hill to ULD spotting (A guy in the UK does it aparently), and went to everything from Serial numbers of the rivets on the fuselage, to serial numbers of seals in the fuel bowsers you get at the local Shell servo... funny joke there too

[Gareth Forwood]

ah the memories - all over the windscreen...

Geez, Carsten - we have about 20 ULDs at Palmyra every day - which one do you need ?

I noted one yesterday LAX-SYD !!!!

Hey dude we found serial numbers on those bright yellow wheel stop barriers in the airport carpark. I took down as many as I could but there were a few thousand. Going back this weekend to get the rest.

Well then, if you're interested in trainspotting then you should go down to strathfield station and check out the 5:05 train to central. My sources have told me that it may be a millenium Or there's the XPT to Parkes on Tuesday - make sure you have you're camera for that one and bring the long lens.

And you should try cityrailforum.net, I heard there's going to be a spotting weekend at the end of Februray with train drivers from countrylink. Give them a wave for me.
