After a very short 2 day visit to Sydney, it was time to say Au revoir to French President Emmanuel Macron at Sydney Airport. The French Air Force Airbus A330-200 F-RARF was quickly on its way to New Caledonia, departing off Runway 34R under blue skies.

There were two additional support aircraft, one was a French Air Force Airbus A340-200 F-RAJB, which departed shortly after the President's aircraft off Runway 34L, and also heading for New Caledonia. The other was a French Air Force Dassault Falcon 7X F-RAFA, which departed shortly before the President's aircraft off Runway 34L, and also heading for New Caledonia.

Apparently the 77E is being leased to LATAM Chile to cover its B787-9s due to Rolls-Royce engine issues.

The part blue engine on the A330 is different.

With all the focus on the 3 French Air Force aircraft, and the visit by French President Macron, it would have been very easy to miss this rare little gem Dash 8-100 operated by PNG Air Cargo. P2-MCG flew Port Moresby-Carins-Roma-Sydney in 6hr 45min, arriving at 0548L on Thursday 3rd May 2018.

I have been chasing this brand new Bell 505 for a month now, and it's the third of only four on the Australian Register. While waiting in the car to photograph the Abu Dhabi Amiri Flight Boeing B787-9 A6-PFE arriving, my iPhone alarm goes off and indicates that Bell 505 VH-HRH had just lifted off at Kangaroo Valley and was heading my way. As you might guess, they both arrived at the same time, however I managed to catch this long shot, which will have to do for now.
