Two Korean Air 747s at Auckland?

Passing through Auckland yesterday evening at 1900 local night there were two Korean Air 747s parked nose to tail on the apron . . . seemed a little unusual. They both had gone by 0700 this morning. Does anyone know what was going on?

Sometime about a year or two ago, there were a number of KA 747s going to and from CS

Full of Amway salesmen or some such retail cult!

Tailstrike training perhaps?

Winston apparently has a remote control device whereby he can bite the ass of any foreign airline bringing too many new immigrants into NZ, hence all the tailstrikes. "Don't come back now, ya hear":ok:

They seem to do the busy season.

They both arrive late morning (about 45mins apart) and depart about 9pm that night.

Could have been a tech prob. but 2 KE flights on the ground all day is pretty usuall for this time of the year.

Think they serve different cities - one doe Incheon, the other Seoul - and one goes via somewhere like Nadi too.

Incheon and Seoul are the same.
Incheon is the new airport for Seoul ( if you count 3 years old as being new that is)
