There is a saying my mother would always say "Everything comes to those who wait" well today that quote came true for me. Back in March an Alliance Airlines Embraer E190 dressed in the 100th RAAF Centenary Livery came to Brisbane. It was here for about 6 weeks then in mid May left on a wet lease to Qantas. Since leaving Brisbane the aircraft does the Darwin - Alice Springs - Adelaide - Alice Springs - Darwin run. I never got to see it back then, and even though it was in Brisbane for a few days at the start of this month, heavy traffic stopped me from getting to the airport in time to get the departure. Well this morning I got a message from a friend to say the aircraft is coming in again today from Darwin, it will be on the ground for 50 minutes then will depart back to Darwin. I was off today so I went out to the airport early and after waiting 8 months I finally got to see it.
