Guys, sorry to bring up such an old topic, but i (rather fortunately) was on EY451 on the 13th of January 2009, yes, i was on the FIRST flight of -EHJ to SYD. Imagine my surprise when it rocked up to the gate i was waiting at
i also have an A6-EHJ model

i am at YSSY every few weeks, give or take, and i have NOT seen this lovely bird since the day i flew her 2 years ago. Its always a regular Etihad 340

John

John, you must be unlucky like me as it seems to still regularly visit yet I have not seen it in a longtime. A6-EHJ last visited on 19/05/11 as EY455

I think I'm unlucky too. Heard it was down the airport one day, drove down there to 'spot' it, but it took off as I was driving along Qantas Dr. Never been able to see it with my own eyes since

By now of course, the livery ain't all that special anymore either!

I was driving past on Airport Drive about an hour earlier today and caught a glimpse of it parked in one of the bays just off taxiway Bravo 1
