Will they be going to any other Aus port apart from SYD?

Haha. Had too share my laughter. I was just talking about this to a friend of mine today. I used to remember heading down to the airport and getting excited about hearing an odd call sign over the scanner or watching an aircraft come in with a colour scheme I did not recognise, resulting in a good days spotting. Whatever I did not see I would catch up on in Australian aviations movements. With todays forums and technology to get information and flight times for an aircraft coming in March is hilarious. I guess I'd rather have it this way so I get to know what's coming in and an opportunity to get a photo.

The only spot viable to get good photos of it before its departure would be from the Qantas Museum in T3 as its currently parked on the Jetbase side of the engine pond.
