Thanks for the info Gerald.

So I'm guessing most folks will be out there by around 7am? Let's hope this time there won't be the parking/traffic problems that occured for SQ's first commercial flight.

Route info: DCT ANITO B470 PKP L895 TATAN/M085F390 L895 SAPDA A585 PD
T21 LEC J141 PKS H319 TARAL Y59 SY DCT
ALT = YMML
ETD WSSS: 1500z (11pm local / 1am SYD)
FL: 370
Cruising speed: M 0.85
Flight time = 06:51

So, out of WSSS @ 11pm (1am SYD). 6:51 FT. Could arrive any time after 8am, probably around 8:15 to 8:20am if it actually gets out on time.
