Blake,

Have no idea of how long in Sydney for. According to FlightAware it went LAX-Tokyo-PPT-LAX-PPT-SYD.

This one will go streight to the "At least I saw it" collum. ISO 800 and 1/10th doesnt really work for me.

Number 1 is where it is now and Number 2 is when it was taxiing about to shut then engines down and get pushed back into parking. Soooo loud Pics from the mound were useless

LOL. Tim, doubt never once slipped into my mind that you wouldn't get a shot of it! And none of this pretty awful stuff, its an MD-11, you can't make it look bad if you tried!!! But ill be waiting for the photos to be posted here!!!

Oh just realised the photos are already here! Not all that bad though! I think they could get some more people in yellow jackets onto the stair cases though.
