out of pure curiosity
I frequently see the FED EX MD-11 charging up to Guangzhou from Sydney.....curious as to what it hauls between here (OZ) and Southern China?
I can understand a global logistics staging flight around the world....but what goes from here (Oz, Syd) to there (Sthrn China, Guamgzhou)
Just curious...Sydney Rock Oysters? Weren't oysters QF first freight from Syd to SIN.?? Other Seafood? Gold? Tooheys? Racehorses?

Maybe retuning defective Lithium Ion batteries under warranty?
That's how the airtruck industry keeps the crews in high regard.
Strange that allegedly the UK Royal Mail will not accept Li-Ion batteries for despatch, as I found out online when trying to source one for my geriatric I-pod.
Are the airfreight companies still shipping these bombs around, even when notac'd and documented and supposedly correctly packed?
Just a thought from a former SLF airframe manager.........................

The Chinese have been buying a lot of fruit from Oz in advance of Chinese new year. Australia's main export destination is Asia and its major air freighted exports are pharmaceutical and medicinal products, fish/meat/veg/fruit, and gold.
