Once Etihad and Hawaiian arrived we grabbed some dinner before heading over to the mound to try out some night shots. Mother nature had other ideas though with a massive storm closing down the airport! So at about 9:30pm with the weather just getting worse and worse we called it a day.
Saturday, 16 November
Bernie couldn’t make it out to the airport so Stefan and myself met up at the observation deck and spent the day there. I got there at roughly 0630. I noticed on the departure board that quite a few of the internationals from last night didn’t manage to depart due to the massive storm. A6-EDY was parked at the freight area because she couldn’t get out last night operating EK413 to DXB. A6-EDZ passed EDY on her way to RWY16R as EK415. I took some shots of the two of them as I thought it was pretty cool to get two EK A380s in the one shot! EDZ held short and I could see it was holding for another A380 on finals. As the aircraft got closer I could see that it was a third EK A380 (A6-EEF – EK412)!!!
I was pretty happy with this shot!!! Three EK A380s at Sydney in the one frame! A6-EDY (EK413D), A6-EDZ (EK415) and A6-EEF (EK412).
