It went from Perth to Hedland then direct Bali, anyone hear it on centre? was a bit of a laugh, his flight plan was for FL18, but requested FL10 with appropriate climbs to FL18 en-route as fuel load reduced, anyway about 20 minutes after his departure call, centre contacted him asking if he was maintaining. His reply was "negative passing 6000 due weight!"

Looks impressive in size and capability's but you would not call it a a sprightly performer by any stretch of the imagination!
