Virgin Australia operated two charter flights for the AFL using an AT72. VH-VPJ operated the flights as VOZ9001 and VOZ9003 (empty return flight was VOZ9002). The aircraft will be staying overnight.

Joys of the cyclone/chain link fence which makes it tricky getting nights shots (since the tripod is a 1m too short) but better than the fence that is around Sydney Airport.

VH-VPJ returned to Melbourne (just after FVN touched down) and VH-FVN arrived but did a quick turnaround back to Melbourne.

Someone was using a very very long lens, as you can see downtown Teheran in the background

Saw the Iranian A340 in the distance as I drove home today... Also parked up are two Pakistan Airforce aircraft (Gulfstreams?) that flew in yesterday... Sorry dont have a camera in the car at the moment.

The Iranian A340 is now parked up at Sydney on DOM 6 with the UAE 787.
Should be very crowded in a few hours when the Qatar Amiri A340 also arrives.

Regards.

In the afternoon the Islamic Republic Of Iran A340-313 EP-AJA was moved from the DHL Bay to DOM6 Bay 98 - a little challenging at 2:18pm. The
Virgin Australia B737 at the Toll Hanger blocked the view from the illuminated side, and as usual the fence is always difficult from the eastern side.
