No way you will see that in YSSY, its a A330-300, China Eastern use the A330-200 on its flights into YSSY.

Please refrain from quoting the entire above post as it is not necessary - mod.

Gerad,

When i was in Sydney a week and half ago all the China Eastern flights were operated by A330-300's.

B-6085 I saw twice and B-6132 was on the other flight. Also Looking at previous Acars reports there have been a few flights that have been operated by A333's. Also also looking Acars logs B-6127 has been to Sydney on a number of occasions before.

So thry aren't a common site in Sydney.

Wait until x-mas and china's new year you will see them again like last year and every other year when the airline up grades to larger a/c.

You will see there A343, A346, A333 four sure in both YMML, YSSY.

Phil,

Sorry it was supposed to be B-6119 not B-6132, I didn't specify which airlines they were in my log.
