VP-BRT looks to be en-route for an arrival into Sydney in a little bit.

Yep, the Vodka Bus just pulled into Bay 98.

If you haven't seen this particular BBJ, then you're missing out on probably the most intricately patterned paint job of any aircraft I've seen in Sydney. If you don't live in Sydney, then just buy yourself a bottle of Russian Standard vodka from your local bottle-o and look at the pattern. Oh, and the vodka's not bad either!
