Nigel,

One of the reasons why there weren't any first pics on the board is that you graciously opened up 25 for us and we were having such a ball that we forgot all about posting ....

The conga lines up the taxiway were great! At one stage I almost forgot that there was a Delta departure!

Tomorrow flight actually departed LAX on time and is due into Sydney at an adjusted time of 6:51 (or 6:40 depending on where you look), 16minutes late, into gate 53 again.

Understand totally - it also would have been hell for the crew with the self loading cargo having a whine about how long they were sitting on the deck.

However sitting at the end of 25 was pretty amazing today.......

Definately have to agree - especially being there when the EK A380 took off and the SIA 777 arrived...Shame the camera lost all battery when the QF 744 came in inbetween, and shame i had to be at miranda for a 10am meeting...I've added a few more photos to whet your appetites of what it was like..

Craig, that is a true masterpiece! You should be so proud!

BTW, hiring the G-IV was a real stroke of genius on your part...wich I'd thought of it!

Back to Delta for a mo, (I enjoyed the photos and Banter BTW), I was at the Airport yesterday and caught the Delta 777 arriving and it was so nondescript, I almost didn't see it.

I'm glad to see yet aother airline flying here but is there a more boring livery anywhere?

To think they're swallowed Northwest and their nice (if not outstanding) livery is a crying shame.
