When I get home this afternoon/evening, I will have a look as I got photos as the dogfight was happening!

I will also see re EBB as to what I got...

I was at the Little Beach when DHL had 727F flight to New Zealand.There was a topless sunbather there but every one was on the fenceline and missed her. I'll have to dig the slide out from the archives.

Some confusion with dates for EBB; I have photos of EBB arriving on Sunday 16th (photo time 3:21 pm). So Zac would have the departure for the Sat 15th!

Not the clearest but here is its arrival:

Great shots. Where is this beach? I'll be in Sydney in February and would love to check it out. Is it accessible by public transport?

Not accessible by public transport, but I am sure that one of the many Sydney based members may be able to help you out. I'd give you a lift myself, but I live around 800-900 km away.

Default Public transport to the beach

It is easy to get to the beach by public transport. Basically the state NSW public transport bus route 303 stops at the control tower on General Holmes Drive.

It runs through Mascot Shopping centre before its gets to General Holmes Drive so you can join it there or take a joining bus from the domestic terminal which links with it with about a 5 minute wait.

Advise you get to the timetables on the web or ring the state transport inquiries number to get the current timnetable. It varies with the day etc.
