I still don't know how to use it. I would love to be able to see the flight going into and out of Melbourne but I just can't get my head around it. I know a bloke who might be able to set up an ACARS for Melbourne International Airport.
Welcome Aboard Jacob. Good Luck with your licence. When you get it though you know you have to do a trip report :lol:
I hope you enjoy your time with us here.
Judging by the topic title you were pretty excited to go on this trip. I can only imagine what you will be like when you learn your going to be a Dad or when your girlfriend says she will marry you :lol:
Thouraghly enjoyed it mate. Some good photos. I can't wait to fly on the A380. Gotta wait 3 years though. By then Qantas should have their entire fleet of A380's.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! I hope everyone had a great night and early morning celebrating the New Year and is ok this morning. Have a safe and enjoyable New Year and I hope there is a chance that we can all meet up in the New Year.
Heres to a good 2009!!
I wonder if any commercial aircraft will be there? Surly the A380 will be there. I tried to find a full list at http://www.airshow.net.au/avalon2009/index.html but there are many areas on that website. I have sent an E-Mail asking about the Aircraft on display. Will let you know when and if I get a reply.
Just a quick 1. What is your favorite airline livery and special paint job and on what Aircraft?
Mine would have to be....
It's a toss up between the Thai Airlines New Livery on the Boeing 777 and the Vietnam Airlines Boeing 777. And for a special paint job it is another toss up between Wunula Dreaming on the Boeing 747-400ER for Qantas and the Air Pacific Island livery on the Boeing 747-400.

I was out at Melbourne International Airport the other day to see the A380 but it gave me a chance to get creative. I snapped this picture about 10 minutes after the A380 had arrived.
