According to photos we have one in the new livery and one in the old which will be fantastic to catch both in Sydney.

I was just browsing Sydneyaiport.com and saw we had an arrival from.. Pago Pago

Although it appears as a US Airways flight, could this have anything to do with the NWA 747's in?

er... no!
Might be this one, "US" has a part to play in operators name, has "stars & stripes" on the tail but altogether more pleasing livery than US Airways


There was no US Airways flight anywhere near 5:36pm. This USAF C-40 is as close as you get! (Camera clock time was out so Exif data is approx 7 min ahead of real time so landed about 5:40pm)

Northwest X 2 departs on the 10th April. Also a Thai Orient B747 will be in to pick up the people that Corsair left behind.

Something to do with a Spanish insurance convention...
