As mentioned in yesterday's blog, on Friday I took a day trip to Melbourne, leaving early in the morning and returning late in the evening. Below are photos from my journey down which I wanted to share with you all.
The airline I was flying with was Jetstar, JQ565, the aircraft was a 17-year-old Airbus A321-231, VH-VWU (MSN 3948). Departure time was 7.10 am and we pushed back almost on time, at 7.15.
At 7.20 we taxied out for an Alpha 3 departure on runway 19L. Approaching the holding point, we were given a turn and burn, getting airborne at 7.26. Our track took us down over Jimboomba, Tenterfield, and down to Bendigo before banking hard left and then positioning for a runway 27 arrival. The trip down was mostly bumpy, swapping from light to moderate turbulence. I could feel we changed altitude midflight, and after checking later, we went from 280 to 260.
I’ll be posting all the photos from Friday tomorrow, so it would be great if you could check back then.
(These photos were taken on a little pocket camera, a Canon Power Shot SX740)
