Tomorrow's ANZ103 is being operated by a B777-300ER, and given that ZK-OKP (a.k.a. Hobbit jet) is currently on its way to AKL as ANZ1 it's very likely that we're gonna see some Hobbits tomorrow.

Anyone to confirm this?

Singapore Airlines flight 241/242 will be operated as a 777-200ER tomorrow.

Yep its been confirmed! OKP is hopping across the ditch tomorrow *providing nothing goes wrong in the mean time*

What a way to start the month.
Unfortunately, with the weather/temp predicted tomorrow, I reckon it would be quite challenging to get a clean shot, pending on the runway movement, Qantas Drive and it's surroundings might just be the best spot.

Enjoy the Hobbit spotting tomorrow. Got to miss this one due to other commitments. :)

Cheers,

The Hobbit has arrived in SYD & in other news, China Eastern B-6127, is back to wearing the standard scheme! It's operating MU561/562 today.

HORRID conditions, went from overcast/rain for arrival, to nearly 40c by departure, but still, glad to have seen it... Not a bad decal really!!

Good shots mate, I didn't fare any better on the other side, I am liking the new black tail too.

The black tail looks great with the Hobbit decals, however, I don't think I'll share the same sentiments on their normal livery once they repaint their aircraft...

An Air New Zealand 747 inbound over Petersham just now.
