BNE Airport tour (proposed when COVID allows) interest thread

[UP4014]

Yes, I still propose to organise it. I have been trying to meet up with the RGM as I was hoping to get his approval to meet in the QC after the event. He had COVID and we’ve been unable to find an appropriate day (as I don’t live or work in the CBD but sometimes attend events there).

Patience grasshoppers.

Good effort, lots of interest.

Could be interesting; following.

 

[Scenicbumblebee]

Yep - I'm interested

 

[WillYam]

Yep interested!

 

[Major]

Lost interest. I'm out.

 

[knagelli]

Do we know when even is this scheduled ?

 

[QF WP]

When I get enough time to organise it. Smashed at work until beginning of 2024 at least.

 

[QPProletarian]

For some reason I thought this was to be coscheduled with AGM but all good.

 

[Deno]

Good effort, lots of interest.

Thanks.

It was a pipe dream, but not enough time to do it to coincide with FT AGM. It's more likely to be with this years AFF get-together in October

 

[Big John]

I'm still interested !

You mentioned BNE Lost Property Auction. This was the first thing that I saw on the auction listing...



...and thought "surely they can't have misplaced the owner of an airside operations vehicle?!?!?"

Curiously, the listing notes that...

This item is being offered PICK UP ONLY. Local collection is available, if shipping is required, bidders are encouraged to organise their own freight.

Hate to think of the shipping fees in getting this back to SYD!!

So after AFF #17 on the weekend, we (the Moderation, Admin & Editor teams) will consider how best to incorporate the BNE Airport Tour into a future function (weekend). Watch this space...

I've waited a decade for this moment!

As a taster, considering a day at RAAF Amberley on the Saturday, with Sunday being tours of ATC & Runway with the end at either QC or VA Lounge

Are you limited to numbers ?

 

[QF WP]

May be limited on how many per ATC & Airport Runway tour and the number of tours allowed (hoping multiple) on the day - but don’t know exactly until doing the research
