Does anyone know the confirmed dates if these are still correct?

Assuming he will arrive in the morning of Friday 18th then heading to Sydney on Saturday 19th and departing possible Sunday the 20th or 21st?

Yep Jaryd thats correct. It was N225UA. Hopefully it will happen again ;)

I remember reading that he was addressing parliament on Friday, so I'm guessing he'll probably head up to Syd on the Friday afternoon/evening. No idea when he'll leave Sydney though. Hopefully we'll get some movement in daylight hours... :D

Oh if he goes somewhere in that thing (AF1) during the day, there will be movement all right!! ;):p

Hopefully tim we'll get something.I bet ya any money that he will arrive in the evening,AF1 will go straight in to one of sheds at the qantas base,and then depart back to the states in the evening as well. Knowing my luck anyway i wont even get a shot of it! As long as a C-5 brings marine1 out I will be happy.

I know we shouldn't quote full text, but this one had to be quoted :cool:

It's OK to quote the full text as long as it's not the immediately preceding post - mod.

Apparently the American Embassy are still expecting a visit from the POTUS.

I guess its a case of watch this space.

Ryan N 4th June 2010 02:27 PM

Yep. Trip cancelled.
