Default Canberra Plane Spotting (Images)

Looks like there was a mark on the camera but oh well, enjoy! Some of these may have been seen on other parts of the forum.

First you see Dash 8-Q400 VH-QOT undergoing heavy maintenance at Qantaslink's Canberra base.

Next you see Qantas Boeing 737-400 VH-TJK holding short of Runway 35

Brand new (at the time) Dash 8-Q400 VH-LQG pushes back.

Virgin Australia 737-700 VH-VBM

Qantaslink Dash 8-Q400 VH-QOP touches down.

Virgin Australia 737-800 VH-YFF taxis for departure to Melbourne

Same aircraft lining up on 35

British Airway Boeing 777-200ER G-YMMP arrives carrying the Queen.

Same aircraft

Qantas 737-400 VH-TJJ taxis

Qantas 737-800 VH-VYJ arrives

Virgin's E190, VH-ZPQ

Qantas 737-800 VH-VZL arrives from Sydney
jump forward a few weeks...

the same aircraft taxis for departure to Perth (the last Qantas aircraft to leave the ground before grounding I believe)

Virgin Australia ATR72-500 VH-FVL

and last of all is Virgin E190 VH-ZPR holding short of runway 35.
