James nothing has been officially announced HOWEVER watch this space.
I suggest just keep an ear out as there are plenty of rumours but we need a confirmation.Also look back a few photos on my flickr page

I have just posted on the flickr a shot of the new taxiways joining Bravo taxiway and from this our Loop Rd spot will be great most of the day.

2 more KC-10's at BNE so a total of 3 there now.
Sortie's during the day every day.

EVA AIR announced 787-10 to BNE from 09 Oct 4 a week going daily all Dec and Jan then back to 5 a week.

Great to see a new type into BNE.

We have had a great month in BNE with at least another 10 days to go of specials.

Also the QF-AA JV was approved yesterday so the new BNE-SFO and BNE-ORD scheds should be loaded very soon to start in April 2020.
