Day Three at Sydney Airport

This is my 3rd and final day at Sydney Airport for now, I have had a wonderful time watching, listening to and photographing aircraft from all over the world. As previously mentioned many of the airlines that visit Sydney do not come to Brisbane, and if the airline does visit it is a different aircraft. i.e. China Southern bring in a A380 here to Sydney but bring in a A330 to Brisbane.

I have lost count on how photos I took today but I have posted the ones I thought were interesting to see.

I had the shutter open for about 20 seconds giving a wonderful light trail as the approaching aircraft passes by behind her to land on 16R.

Qantas has had one of its latest Boeing 737-800 painted in the old "Retro Colours" VH-XZP (CN 44577) is seen here arriving from Adelaide. The new retro look is in honour of the late Qantas CEO James Strong and it wears his name just under the cockpit window.

 

Qantas sent one of its retired 767's up today for about an hour and a half doing testing.

This 767, VH-OGL (CN 25363) along with 4 other 767's have been sold back to Boeing in Seattle. 

Boeing will then lease them to low cost carrier "West Jet" in Vancouver.
