I was at my local airport today, and on the nose of a rather big Aircraft, was "Jabiru"

 

On the red tail was the rather famous Kangaroo Logo.

 

VH-TJS Boeing 737-476 "Jabiru"

 

I was rather surprised!

 

interesting though

That may be the biggest Jab, but I fly a CJ1. That is it's official designation on the Australian register. Cessna also use CJ1, but theirs is a bit faster being a jet.

I know that Jabiru is also the name of a small NT town near the junction of the Kakadu Highway and the Arnhem Highway almost due East of Darwin.

 

So if those aeroplanes with Kangaroos on their tails have featured the name of this town on one of it's aircraft I was wondering when their organisation will notice Carrathool in NSW which is probably about the same size as Jabiru and is also usually the home of many of the big red plains kangaroos on the surrounding properties.

 

Not holding my breath.

I flew on VH-TJS "JABIRU" Sydney Bris. on the way to Bundy to pick up a new Jabby. The passenger in front of me was on the same mission....to get his new Jabby.

 

Small world.
