ben170292 Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Does anyone know why there was a Tiger Airways plane sitting at the international terminal? I thought they only operated domestic from Melbourne. Thanks, Ben
ben170292 Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 Right now there is a helicopter hovering above MEL does anyone know why? A second one is now hovering here as well
Pete777 Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 Hey Ben, thats normal, Tower will hold stuff at points over the terminal, if the choppers are travelling past, or it could be a news chopper filming 'whatever', and there is also a mock emergency op going on today, it's an annual thing.
ben170292 Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 Ok, thanks for the information, I was hoping something new was coming into Melbourne haha

Pete777 Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Who can identify the 4 aircraft in the ARF new toy being built near Melbourne ASA - the tower on Operations Rd. * For non locals, the firies are building a mock plane to set on fire off and on, it looks cool, but I was told there's 4 different planes in it.
Robbo Posted November 5, 2012 Author Posted November 5, 2012 Prince Charles heading into Melbourne somtime tonight / early morning, believe the aircraft will be parked at Jet City (John Holland)
Pete777 Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 Hi Robbo, Wondering what you do at MEL ? just wondering where I would 'bump' into you. * for some reason I can't send / connect to a private conversation message to you ?
