Very nice, Grahame, thanks for sharing! :)

The mornings LAN B789... Arrival, in residual smoke from HRB's around, whilst the departure was, thankfully, in MUCH clearer skies!!

Here is a 1 minute video of the LAN B787-9 Dreamliner CC-BGA arriving and departing on Runway 34R.

This is what a days worth of movements looks like at the Gate Level for Sydney Airport. The mass of tracks on the right of the map are mainly ENTRA4 & MARUB5 departures from Runway 34R.

Desert-Air Safaris VH-TAM Fairchild SA227-AC Metro III arrived in Wagga this afternoon. The aircraft still wears the former Brindabella Airlines livery (minus the titles of course).

Also interesting to see VH-XDH parked/disabled off but parallel to runway 23. The REX tug, along with four AAPA (with towbar) pilots walking back to the AAPA hangar. Council vehicles patrolling the runway, taxiways and perimeter.
