Nope, not here now.
Chris, the only thing missing from your shot is the copious amounts of black smoke that bellowed from this thing, 8 blade props sure spun fast, so I'm not surprised you got easy prop blur. It was interesting watching the start-up procedure for it yesterday. With about 6 ground crew front and back and sides, one guy gave all the funky aircraft carrier hand signals to the pilot (a lot of which I could keep up with, but many I had no idea what he was asking to check...  ), and after each procedure the aircraft was checked to make sure no leaks or faults were detected. Everything from the rear cargo door closing to the brake lines after 5m taxiing were checked prior to departure. It was a lengthy procedure but so slick to watch.Cheers

The same rego we got back in December. (UR-CAH)  (Skip to 4:30) Also, does anyone remember the last time a C-2 visited Sydney? I seem to remember one departing off 34R back in the early 2000's.
