The ADL Bear

[markis10]

I see after 15 years the bear is still at ADL, currently doing a spot of fishing, not looking bad for all that time in the elements! I wonder how often he moves, last time I was in ADL he was watching the takeoffs!

What is this bear of which you speak.

You're based in ADL. Surely you've noticed 'Buck' the bear.:shock:

I haven't seen him for a while, and was wondering if he had disappeared.

Glad to hear he's still there!

Adelaide Airport would be 'un-bear-able' if he did depart!

It's awesome when you learn something new about a city/airport that you live in and have flown in and out of countless times before. I'd never heard of this guy.

Next thing we know there'll be a "Bear Cam" on the ADL web site.

Buck was last seen in the top right corner of Serfty's pic. Next to the taxi-way.

About here.

Thanks. There I go, I don't read the Tiser. That's what I get for being a newspaper snob.

He even got to play with some pandas in 09!

On QF740 this morning, the pilot made special mention of the bears new location whilst taxiing

Last time I was in ADL he was riding a bike near the gates just over the apron. Can't remember before that, but I had trouble convincing the girlfriend there was a giant stuffed toy dressed up on the runway!

Well, missed you both by 2 hours and by being on DJ401 ADL-SYD.
