Guest g_i_jack029 Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 well, i was out camping, the day i was about to leave a QF 747 flew over! i don't think my friends have ever seen me run so fast in my life, they said i was sprinting that fast they thought something had blown up inside my house lol :lol: anyway, got the camera, got out side and quite happily snapped 86 pictures of the bugga :D QF 747 6/6/08 at around about 10:00am, flying from i'm guessing YSSY-YADL or YPPH alot of the photos turned out doubled :evil: my heart was making my camera jump up and down lol :lol: [ATTACH]17786[/ATTACH]
Guest Darren Masters Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 My friend, excellent pics! Combined with your excellent pics and my excellent ACARS signals I would say it is this aircraft: VH-EBV (B743 QF) 0929 20080606 QF0575 (SYD-PER) Looking in to your pics it does look like a 747-300 and the rego does look something like EBV??? Don't know if you can get a better res from your shots. Where were you camping?
Guest Glenn Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 Nice one Jack. I like the second shot the best :)
