Yep, media on site and a DHL rep. After they shot this they had to scoot to Bay 3 T1 where a water salute was given by the ARFF as it crossed 34L onto Alfa-1 then into Bay 3.

Were you there by chance?? In the middle??

Nigel C · #46 28th April 2013, 09:09 PM

No, I was in the north west sector when it landed so I only got to see the water salute from Tenders 3 and 4

I particularly love this quote from Nigel's link:

"The growth in the volume of consumer goods flying into Australia has forced DHL to replace the two 747s it was using on its US-to-Australia route with two new 767s."

Umm... what!?
