Any ideas on departure times/dates for the Corsair? Thats a scheme id really love to see. What about the Northwest's on their way? Times of Arr/Dep?

It may be somthing to do with V Australia because apparently Northwest are having some sort of codeshare with V Australia. Im not sure why they would need 2 747's to come in though.

To add to the weird arrivals, 01-0041 (cn 33080/1089), a Boeing C-40B BBJ (737-7CP) from the US Air Force arrived just after 5 pm.
