N709DL was delivered to Atlanta yesterday so should see it here soon.

I was extremely lucky as I did the boeing factory tour at Seattle Paine field last Saturday and saw this aircraft do either a final test run or an actual delivery flight.

N710DN (40560) ferried Everett-Seattle-Tacoma the following day (24th).
So 2 to look out for!

Edit: Of course N709DL should read N709DN - where is OPSM?

Des Hasler (Manly Sea Eagles coach for the non-NRL followers) might have their number on speed dial...

Yes Nigel spot on, but, will he pay for me? The Footy Show did a clever skit on this topic.

If he won't, you could always rip a door or two off its hinges...

Peter et al,

N709DN should be making its first (anyone confirm?) visit tomorrow morning. On its way from LAX-SYD as DL9761. (In addition to the regular DL17)

Cheers
Gerard
