I'm not sure how recent this is and I couldn't find anything on AV Herald. I have no words to describe this https://instagram.com/p/BKKgIU1jZUf/

AV Herald does not report on incidents at the gate or during taxi

Incidents will be reported only during active flights from entering the takeoff runway to leaving the landing runway, other incidents at the gate or during taxi are summarily dismissed.
Accidents involving commercial flights with 19 or more seats are reported as soon as The Aviation Herald gets to know about them.​

I stuck my head out the window to check, but it was definitely an E-120 Brasilia.
 
Apologies for quality of photos...

Driving past the private jet end of Sydney airport last night and came across this plane. I believe it is a 767-200ER.

Captain's Choice Tours. I believe that it has 100 business class type seating and it is Chartered from Aeronexus from South Africa. I did find some info last night but now it has disappeared.
