No lah, Iggy. Where got so lucky to get in. Just that the 'beast' parked very close to the fence infront of us.

 

Here's one more - AN124-100 (UR-82027) from Antonov Design Bureau.

Didn't get the landing shot cause she landed immediately after rwy changed to 21.

Prior to An124's arrival, we were waiting at the 03 approach and caught these side dishes. :)

Another An124 visit planned for PER from 2130 tomorrow until 10th...still I don't think we're gonna beat out 16 An-124's and 6 C-5's that passed thru in a 2 month period back in 03.

The 2nd one was RA-82043 of Volga-Dnepr. It wasn't a low pass, it was just a damn heavy climb out!

 

Also, Skywest's 6th F100 arrived yesterday ex- XSP and DPS, VH-FNC

Cheers Pieter...I was out spotting with Matt and Kian today and remembered I said i'd put up some of my (now old) Iron Maiden shots a long while ago, so I also dug up a few other special visitors that slipped through the cracks...or so i think...

 

"Emirates 421" opb 77W A6-EBG about to push for the 9000km journey direct to Dubai

For Pieter, GIRjet 74F EC-KEP (ex PH-MCE) came to PER to transport some goods to Africa

From the images here, Perth does not seem to be the world's most isolated city at all. It seems to be getting all the goodies - plus the special jets.

Wow, nice shot of EC-KEP; GirJet went broke so will not be seen by you anymore :blink:

This 8-62 shot is quite impressive with those 4 pods at full-thrust :pardon:

Awesome set of pix there, Liam! Especially like the DC-8. :good:

 

 

Went over to the international terminal to get the C-130 before meeting up with Liam. But instead of shooting the C-130 with its butt facing me :angry: , I got this. :rolleyes: Hehehe... Bravo X-ray operated as QF72 from SIN city.

 

Nope... she wasn't taxiing to the wrong terminal.
