Wonder who from the Russian government is making the trip and why, must be reasonably high up to get a ACJ319 from the special detachment fleet?

The Russian Government Rossiya Airbus A319-115(CJ) RA-73025 touching down on Runway 34R on this very wet Sydney morning ...





VIPs depart RA-73025 which is parked at DOM6 Bay 97


It was just a little brighter in the afternoon on DOM6






Love the Google Translate App on the iPhone using the camera - perfect for foreign language meuns - it just replaces the text in the image


USAF Gulfstream C-20F 91-0108

Nice pictures Grahame! Any news on its departure date/time?

"Olga" Erickson Air-Crane (N6962R) Sikorsky S-64E called in for fuel at Wagga Wagga Airport (headed towards Sydney). Picked this up on Mode-S (A943AE) for the first time.



Also picked up McDermott Aviation (N281JL) Bell 214B-1 on Mode-S (A2D285) but couldn't spot it (likely hidden by the general aviation hangars next to the AVGAS and JET A1 fuel depot).

I noticed F70 Unity 3393 tracking oceanic in towards Sydney, and thought that was a little unusual. This is definitely the long way around from Auckland to Melbourne - maybe something to do with an old twin over water, and they needed to track via Lord Howe.

No doubt for EDTO compliance - would need to remain within 60 mins (at OEI cruise) of NLK and/or LDH. Old twin over water (in a way, although old not quite the issue), as you said.

If my powers of deduction are playing, AA's 77W visit on Friday morning should be N734AR.
