Guest David C Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 SQ A380 airbus 9V-SkA is currently tracking on a slightly unusual outbound track of KAT - Cowra at the quite low altitude of FL240 . May be a good sight Glenn !! .. Dave C
Guest Glenn Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 Noooo I missed it!!! Thanks Dave. I should PM you my mobile and you can text me if something like this happens again. Darren emailed me about a Malaysian and I missed it :cry: Just saw two aircraft headed west overhead. Don't know what they were as I was putting the car away and they were too far ahead even if I ran inside for the camera. Nice golden contrails too.
Guest Darren Masters Posted June 8, 2008 Posted June 8, 2008 Dave, it was all happening yesterday mate. Looked at the weather radar and there was no cells out that way so I don't know why the track over Cowra. Maybe some weather further NW? Malaysian 130 went straight over Cowra too. A very unusual track.
Guest David C Posted June 8, 2008 Posted June 8, 2008 I must admit I didn't check it out yesterday . Usually the flight path is dictated more by the wind speed and direction aloft , more so than CB's and the like ... Lets see how they route today . I do remember though so years ago we flew on a flight from SIN over Port Headland , Whyalla , Mildura , Griffith and Cowra .. Dave C
Guest Darren Masters Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 Yes, usually the overflys never go over the Cowra way. It is the first time (out of all I have seen) that have gone that way. We came back to Sydney via Adelaide too from Singapore last time and I thought that was unusual.
Robbo Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 The pilots and hosties just wanted to tease Glenno :D =D> #-o
Guest Darren Masters Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 Yes, I told them over the radio when they flew over here to go via Cowra instead. Then, I emailed Glenn to ask him to get the shot. The bugger was not home :twisted: (This is a Malaysian flight I'm talking about by the way).
Guest Glenn Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 Too bad if anything comes over now. It's overcast and the temp is dropping
