Local (CBR) news this morning said she would fly from SYD to CBR and back, 'arriving' around 2pm, so I had a reminder in Outlook set up, but at around 1:30 I looked up from my corner desk on Lvl 6 (I have a nice view of the northerly flight path) to see her nice & low, flying north then banking around Mt Majura. She did 2 turns of this, then I guess it was back to SYD.

A bit of reminiscing at being taken to the airport to see the brand new Jumbo Jet, and thoughts of internal promises "One day I'll fly in that!" :)

I made the others in my office crowd by the window, then I showed them pictures from Airliners.net - now they REALLY think I'm weird :cool:

left t 6 this morning.. too dark to see..dammit, would like to have seen... thanks for those with the pics..
 
I'm certain I heard a radio news reporter tonight stating, among other interesting facts, the rather startling revelation that the A380 flew "at 85% the speed of light" :shock:

Bit disappointing they couldn't have gone that extra 15%. Would have made very short work of those pesky OZ-UK flights!! :D

I am not sure if it is the graphics enhancing it, but the tail sure is a biggin...
