And only 1 day after their inaugural flight into Sydney.

on the arrival of the aircraft will there be a water fountain from the fire trucks?

If it was a new route, then perhaps, but I think unlikely for just a change in aircraft.

I checked the booking engine at Qatar, and yes, it does arrive on Friday at 1735L

[Nigel C]

Arrival time is slated for 1915L for the A380 on Friday Grahame. 1735L is the final B777-300ER time for Thursday evening.

Good pickup Nigel

[Reece perram]

at the mound, is it light enough to take photos at 7:00 pm?

[Nigel C]

Last light is at 1812 Reece, but the moon is a 99% full waxing gibbous that rises at 1711.
If your camera has excellent low light capability, the near full moon might give off a bit of light, but you'd probably be best viewing it from the top of Rydges Hotel (if they're open for spotting then?).

Ok, thanks
