Her name is "Cape Leeuwin" and the flight number is SXI2443

SXI - Southern Cross International
24 - 2024
43 - 43rd contract for the year.

They may have to use three digits at the end with the amount of work they are doing.

Stirling the 24 is the last two digits on 2024.

If you look at last year and even early this year it was 23 for 2023
