Merged: A380 Movements Around Oz
 

I live at camden and have seen the QF380 fly past a few times yesterday and today. Can anyone tell me what callsign they are using??

Am curious what their sorties have been as they've been turning it round fairly quickly, ground and flight crew training i guess.

Curious

Call Sign

BUGGAR 101

(ie The buggery campain lives on):=

QF60**(add extra two numbers)

Started as 6003 into mel yesterday. 6009 into Bris. 6063 into Mel this morning. So a four digit starting with 60.
HTH.

I'm pretty sure I saw & heard the big 'Dugong' departing MlLaround 4pm today (frid) Not that quiet actually sounded like distant thunder & it would have been around 12-15000 ft or so over my place.(NW ML)

Brake cooling?
 

Saw it take off and left the gear out for a looooong time. Can any experts explain?

CW

Probably an old 767, the dugong is rather quiet!

J:ok:

heard the same thing mr hat.Dont know but presumably training, as I've heard nothing re snags.
they're doing a lot of training and promo work to various ports carrying staff who won a spot for joy flts etc.

Yeah Luck buggers what a great job!

Could this be the only aircraft in the Rat fleet that runs on time?

Just did a fly-by over the AFL grandfinal, looked pretty dam ugly:ugh:

Conspiracy reigns supreme. SMS, your thread was merged into another (which happens form time to time) and unfortunately the resultant thread has frozen (cannot be opened, even by mods). In the interim it is in the Toolshed while we work on fixing it. :rolleyes:

So the sky really isn't falling, and no, I don't work for QF :}

I've got a reason for being indoors today.:{ You should all be outside playing. The weather's beautiful! :E

TID

Pity really! I thought the "Dugong" was clever and very funny. The pic of the sea cow certainly indicated where the frogs got the idea for the design. Both have a face that only a mother could love. Wouldn't surprise me if it is renamed the A380 Dugong. One is an endangered species - the other may well be also!

A380 in Adelaide again today?
 

Any truth to the rumour that the A380 is back in ADL tonight?

1830 Tonight (Apparantly) :ok:

Hopefully someone can confirm

How good are your sources?

bd - I'm suprised you could figure how ugly it was for all of the 0.23 microseconds Ch $even showed of the bloody thing before cutting to an interview they could have easily played later on ...

Absolute pricks .. give the footy back to Ch.10

At least the new A380 Qantas ad was shown during the game tho ..

Aussie Insider,

-Adelaide Airport Duty Manager
-Channel 9 or 7 news
-Few Pilots and airline employee's that seem to know whats going on there..

So if it doesnt turn up it'll be news to quite a few people...


:ok:

Ok thanks mate,

might take a squizz, hopefully a little more low key than yesterday

Anyone know the callsign?

QF60**

No Problem,

I hope its more low key, night time (ish), colder, less known, hopefully will be much more accesable to view it...

If you want to confim it give adelaide a call they are usually more than happy to help out ( 0883089211 )

:ok:
