Emirates 413 Engine Failure

[Sarah C]

Please EK, send your 747 freighter

[Stefan Perkas]

Evening all,

Looking at Ek sky Cargo's flight schedules it appears Sydney could be in luck. It is showing a SYD-HKG flight tomorrow operated by a B747-200 (I think it is supposed to say 747-400).

It is is only showing departure time of 1510. I do not know where it is coming from and what time. I am only providing info based on what the schedules are showing.

I do stand corrected on this. If it doesn't turn up I do apologise...

[Winston Khong]

Awesome, will keep an eye out for it on FR24. Thanks for the info!

[Montague S]

think they'll send the horse freighter.

There are 2 Emirates cargo flights due tomorrow. EK4849 due in at 1440 from Dubai, and EK9822 due in at 1820 from Dubai-Singapore. As of a couple of hours ago, they were both listed as being B777's...

[Morris Biondi]

both listed as being B777's...

Unfortunately, EFG and EFD. EFG from VCBI, maybe that is the extra service UAE4849.

For what its worth, the 777 freighter has a wider main deck door.

Back when all the Trent 900's (so not EK relevant) were being inspected post -OQA incident, a number of new units arrived into Sydney for Qantas onboard 747-400 Freighters. It was extremely tight getting them out of the main deck door, just millimeters either side.

[Winston Khong]

Will these freighters depart this evening? Weather is rather rubbish at the moment. Does anyone know what the second freighter is coming to.Sydney for? Horses for the races?

A6-EDA was missing from bay 72 this afternoon. Anybody have info on it's current location/status? Flightradar etc have it's last movement listed as the 11th.

I would assume its in a QF hangar Nathan awaiting its new engine that should have been flown in today..... That is of course if the extra EK B77F was bringing an engine!
