[QUOTE=rog747;10220726]

going to my car after Late's in the northside car park often would see in the late 70's/early 80's the late departures of SQ SAA and QF classic 747's all rather heavy and loaded using almost full length to the end -
these a/c were -200B PW variants so iirc could just do the longer hauls going East or South...not sure if SIN was non stop then or went via DXB and again not sure if BKK/SIN was non-stop then for QF deps/QUOTE]

IIRC long hauls from east in early eighties tended to show 'last stop Bombay' on the T3 arrivals board, but perhaps beyond the 100 series by then.
