oh ok. Is that like what they did with th V australia 773 when that arrived??

Not that i'm complaining but why Adelaide? We had the QF a380, the VA 777 and now the VB a330? is it just because we're close to Melb and Syd?? Coz they never use them to Adelaide again after the training flight.......

It would be in case a diversion is needed I would think. ie: SYD-PER emergency would drop in to ADL, at least the ground crew know what it is when it comes in

Probably because ADL is a less busy airport than SYD and MEL, and therefore can be used for touch and go training.
