Qantas B747-200 out of Darwin
B772 The figure of 673 pax out of Darwin on a Qantas B747-238 comes from the Qantas history web page and others. The first of my post-Tracy flights into Darwin was on 27Dec74 in what I understand is now the only C130A with three bladed props still flying worldwide. (ex RAAF A97-212)We never carried a record number of pax, but we did arrive into Sydney on one evacuation flight with more on board than we had had on departure. (A litter of rabbits born en route). I have never before, or since, witnessed devastation such as we saw in Darwin.
