It's just over 10 years since Singapore Airlines operated the world's first commercial Airbus A380 service (SIN-SYD) & today they emulated that inaugural service using the 1st of 5 brand new A380 aircraft, featuring new First & Business Class seats - Seen here is 9V-SKU landing this morning.

Didn’t see any photos of the quick visit to Sydney, she left at 0600 on Jan 1, but managed to catch her in the flesh on the ground in Johor Baru today! What a coincidence.

I thought I had posted the Crystal AirCruises B77L images - It proved a bit elusive to get a good shot.

A very dark arrival at 9:30pm on 30th December 2017




Parked on Bay 71 with plenty of heat haze on the 31st December 2017


Departing at 0600L on the 1st January 2018 - This was after sunrise however a large bank of cloud covered the sun. They were at the ALFA6 Holding Point at 0555L and had to wait until 06000L for Curfew to end.

One of Emirates five A380 with the "Year of Zayed" livery visited Sydney Airport overnight. A6-EEU operated EK414 arriving in Sydney at 2238L last night, and departed early this morning as EK415 to Dubai at 0556L. Although the aircraft has visited Sydney many times, this was its first visit in this new livery.

Emirates unveiled this special tribute livery to the late HH Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the founding father of the United Arab Emirates, on their 100th A380 A6-EUV. Five A380s and five B777s will carry the "Year of Zayed" livery, with A380s A6-EEU, A6-EUA, A6-EUZ, A6-EUV, and B777s A6-EQH, A6-ECE and A6-EPP completed so far.
