6 DAYS TO GO and VA 781 BNE-CNS at 1050am will be the first departure on the new runway.This has already been advised and a late am departure so all VIP's can sleep in a bit.
There are 4 aircraft from the North landing between 1110am and 1140am that could be the first arrival but this has not been nominated .2 are Jetstar and Qantaslink and Virgin are the other 2. Remember the new runway is for North and Western movements only so all Southern and Eastern arrivals and departures are on the current runway system. |

I heard about a flypast after VA781 departs. ATC mentioned it too
Edit: VA781 is taxiing to the new runway Edit 2: the flypast formation is waiting for VA781 to depart. Edit 3: I think one of the aircraft performing the flypast has the callsign "heritage 1" Edit 4: VA781 departed. ATC: "for the first time ever, cleared for takeoff" Edit 5: the flypast of 3 aircraft include a spitfire, mustang and an albatross. Feel free to correct me. Edit 6: a texan seems to also be present Edit 7: the spitfire is VH-XWE
