Hi Nigel

Unfortunately, I rolled the 03 dice and lost.

The winds were all over the place on Sunday morning and 03 was the active runway when I left home 90 minutes before ETA. Like so many others I had a great spot in Kewdale and I thought I was being very clever until the runway changed to 21 at 1120, about 30 mins before ETA.

Then I lost the second race of the day in the scramble to get to the other end of the airport. I've never seen such a traffic jam around the airport and thousands would have been disappointed expecting a 03 arrival. But at least I saw it flash past my windscreen !

There are many great photos on various W A enthusiasts' sites of both the arrival and early morning departure yesterday so hopefully some will appear here.

Cheers

Bob
