Landed in SYD today and saw and unmarked A340 driving around at the intl terminal (excuse poor picture) anyone got any intel on it?

Charter? Visiting officialdom? Or just had a wash?

Thanks Markis10 I knew you would know. I've seen it in BNE plenty of times before, but didn't make the connection. Many thanks

With respect to the Far East Movement ........ 'Now I'm feelin so fly like a G6' ......well like a G5 actually.
Bit of the unusual at BNE yesterday ...either finance G20 in Cairns or up coming BNE G20 related perhaps.

If you look in the back ground you can also see the work on the second runway underway ...sand being pumped on to allow for compaction.
