Making the usual series of turns after a RWY16L departure
Beautiful day!
Cruising up the coast
Light lunch on the flight up to BNE. Very nice little pizza slice.
I watched a couple of episodes of Two and a Half men on the iPad. The iPad worked well, plenty of content to keep you entertained.
Overflying the Gold Coast on descent
Nice weather up in Brisbane too…
Bit of a speed brake on descent
Over the southside
Turning finals for RWY01
Over the Gateway bridges
Short finals
Nearly down…
Touchdown!
Well after another enjoyable flight on a Qantas 767 is was time to disembark. We picked up our bags. My parents picked me up and that was the end of our awesome Sydney trip!
Conclusion:
Awesome trip! Huge thanks to Bernie for looking after us! Also thanks to Joel, Daniel, Matt and Zac for the company while spotting. Was good to finally meet Damian and Mehdi! I had a great time.
The Boeing 767 is just an awesome aircraft! It will be so sad to see the Qantas 76’s go!
Next trip for me is a quick day trip down to Sydney on September 28th for one last ride on QF8! Then up to Cairns in early October for a holiday and then Sydney and Melbourne in late October for a couple of days to try and score some more flights on some 767s!
Thanks for reading…
