A surprise first visit today from the Royal Flying Doctor Service Pilatus PC-12NG VH-FXZ, operating a patient transport mission from Adelaide to Sydney - This aircraft was the 1,500th off the production line and is based in South Australia.

Nice catch and great photos! Saw it on my ADS-B feed (intranet only). Have had two visit WGA and this one would be great to see!

Thanks Robert, it's a beautiful aircraft, and the Patient Stretcher unloading system is very good.

Well, I thought five Airbus A380s from five different Airlines in the one DSLR shot was difficult, however I achieved this back in January. This morning the planets aligned once again, but this time it was 6 A380s from 6 different Airlines at Sydney Airport. If the departing Korean A380 had taxied just a couple of minutes earlier, a 7 A380 7 Airline shot may have been on.

The USAF Boeing B757-200 (C-32A) 99-0003 departed this morning, after arriving late on Saturday night. They taxied past Shep's Mound on CHARLIE and then departed off Runway 34L - and they were up early.

This morning's SQ221 SIN-SYD service was operated by the latest Singapore Airlines Airbus A380 9V-SKV, only delivered one week ago. This was its first commercial service, and only the second A380 to be fitted with the all new SQ Cabin configuration.

See if you can go for 8 Grahame, MH are running A380 flights into Sydney from 12 Feb to 1 Mar on MH122/123

I always have an eye out for the shot Mark, there is a lot of luck involved, especially for 7 or 8, and you can only do it when the summer seasonal services are operating - about a month to go.
