It's supposed to be VH-OEH

Blue Seats and Overhead lockers = a 2 class 747-438

[Martin Buzzell]

Well spotted Jack, I didn't pick that, but thought it looked a bit old???

Look at the Fuel Synoptic (two things there, well three really) and also the PFD.

[Nick Te Mata]

The picture of the PFD shows selcal EH-CP, which belongs to N667US, a 747-451 ex-Northwest that's now with Delta.

[Martin Buzzell]

Yes, I just couldn't make out the selcal.

They've finally published my replies, which the first one was sent on Sunday.

[Rod Sloan]

Excellent work Martin.

Check out Capt. Palikaras avatar on Jetspotter. I think he might be the Janitor.

Just had a look at the charts for LAX from here ( select Facility map Top LHS)

Not knowing if this is all true one way or another (will leave that to you guys).

If he landed on 7L (doesnt say) and exited at Juliet as he stated, why would he need 9500' of a 12091' runway to pull up a near empty 744 (even allowing 1000' to touch down in a landing zone)(fuelwise)

That said, if his landing was day time, how could he not be asked to leave via a rapid, say Bravo 5, or even Golf at one of the world's businest airports?.

Again, happy to be proven wrong b/c I dont know.

[Jarrad Phillips]

thanks for sharing this Martin!! And I loved the response you posted on behalf of the real QF pilot......Its going to be a real chuckle to see the replies.

I like his display pic on Jetspotter...he says he used to fly 737's for Virgin, and is in the cockpit of a 737NG, but wearing a pilots cap? Who wears caps at Virgin?
