Mickel Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 The Qlink B717 from Canberra: RNZAF 757 passing through I'm surprised this one came out. It was pretty dark at this stage, and my camera is not the latest... The big white plane on the left is a Belfast - only one of ten ever made. The parking meter has racked up over $100k. Its fate lies with the courts. (this might be better off in general discussion, or not) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wakashi Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Excellent photos! Hope that parking meter is not of the coin fed type! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Excellent photos. You must have had a great vantage point being up so high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Interesting pair of photos. I didn't realise the Belfast was still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These were taken in mid-Sept last year. I presume it's not moved. I thought it was a old Russian thing, since the view from the road isn't that good as you flash past at 80k. Never occurred to me that it might be a Belfast until I saw it in the Aust Aviation mag in Oct discussing its current (as that time) status. It has a really interesting mix of traffic through there. There was an RNZAF P-3K parked up near one of the international gates which can be seen in the first pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Thanks for pointing out the P-3K. A lot of interesting planes in the 2nd shot too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
