Default Air China B738 B-5342
CCA22A landed on runway 25 from Auckland at 1545.

Chinese Vice-President Xi Jinping was in New Zealand on a three-day official visit and suppose to arrive in Sydney on 19th June. So this might be him. But not so sure about the B744 spotted in Auckland.

Possibly departing sometime Tuesday heading for Darwin. The CA737-800 departed SYD yesterday on-time at 7am to Darwin then onto Guangzhou.

I suspect it's leaving CBR soon...stairways are up to it, and traffic closures are either imminent or just happened.

Who's got access to the flight plan stuff?

Thanks,
Matt

Some photos from the 744's arrival into Canberra on Sunday. It definately was something nice to watch!

1. Approaching Rwy 35.


2. Nice touchdown.


3. Parked near the tower.

Great photos!

I caught a quick video of it departing on the phone. Short roll...

Apologies for quality.
