Short field landing?
Hi everyone first time poster long time reader.
Landing into Sydney the other night on runway25 and was just about to exit taxiway Juliet and I heard someone requesting if taxi way bravo was available.
I finally got a clearance to cross 16R, expecting to see a dash8 exit off bravo I was very surprised to see a qantas a330 pull off.
I said to my off sider it must be empty. He said " no I can see passengers on that".
It was a little bit busy on the ground radio but I just wanted to say that was a bloody great effort.
Congrats man
Is that short for an a330?
Oh and as usual it was a crosswind landing.

pipercub,
Once upon a time, (now) 16R only went a few meters beyond 07/25, we regularly used it in B707 days.
I know naught about A330, but a B767 making G isn't a big deal.
Tootle pip!!
