So after seeing on flightaware the possibility of a DC-8 and on one of the acars sites having QF's new schemed VH-OEB inbound, I made the trek out.

Good to see the Air India 777 switch was to the -300ER!

Nice shots, Kenny. Maybe I can swing out to JFK on Sunday to try my luck again.

Damn...it doesn't get much better than that!

You gotta be careful with ACARS and Qantas...the timestamps are all local, so they might be off by a day depending on where they were sent from. Wunala burned me that way a couple of times (and once it was actually Wunala but the weather was bad).

Thanks guys.

Barry, my CX shot can't hold a candle to that CX bank you got. That's just perfect.
Adam, I know but one can always hope. Until then...acars can eat me. lol
