USA 747 arrival
 
Iv just been snapping some pics of departures on 34L this morn and a United States of America 747 landed! There are now police everywhere around runway 25!

Does anyone know anything about this? And who may be on the plane?

USAF E4B - Secretary of Defence.

He is here for a meeting with Australian officials.

Secretary of State, Joint Chief of Staff and Commander of Pacific fleet should be joining them.

REASON

Dignitaries all staying at the InterContinental Hotel - a favourite for the relative ease with which it can be secured and for its proximity to alternative escape routes by air, sea and road.
