December Noteworthy Movements Discussion

Flightaware has it doing Cobar and Orange yesterday/today. Has also done Mudgee and Narrabri last week and was at Wollongong over the weekend too but that looked more like a training flight.

Thanks guys, so it's in and out all day!

Ok guys I was at the airport on Saturday and I saw a light Cessna land and takeoff in short secession around 3:30 VH-NBI can anyone explain this???

[Rory Delaney]

Landed from Narrabri at 3pm and took off for Scone at 3:43pm.

Why was it here?

TAI has been parking in Sydney for the past month or so and doing fairly regular flights out of there.

The Cessna could be just a training flight and control zone exposure for a student pilot at a guess. Or perhaps they were dropping someone off who is catching a commercial flight?

EDIT: Sorry guys, I have heard that it is scheduled to go to BNE.

For what it's worth, ANZ 77W with hobbit livery should be in tomorrow on the ANZ119 flight for it's 2nd visit. If I remember correctly horrible conditions on her first visit to Sydney.

Subject to change as per usual.

VH-OJI is missing it's right winglet and will depart as qf 5. Probably the closest we'll get to another 747-3 here.
